The Parque Nacional de Timanfaya will host the Canarian Government's Semana de la Ciencia y la Innovación (Science Week) for students at two educational institutions, the Instituto San Bartolomé and Colegio Benito Méndez Tarajano in Arrecife. This event, which sold out quickly, aims to inspire future scientists and highlight the importance of research in the region. Students will visit the Mancha Blanca Interpretation Center and explore the Volcanoes Route, engaging with a scientist who will explain the information revealed by the landscape.
