The mines of Vulcano

The area shown as collapsed has been recut so that is possible, with care, to get through.

• Picture A. Phil walking the trackway between San Manuel and Vulcano.
• Picture B. The track continues along the steep ravine of the Barranco de los Lobos.
• Picture C. We disturbed some deer which fled surefootedly down the ravine.
• Picture D. Although we could not reach the tunnel leading to Vulcano due to the landslip, the entrance could be seen clearly.
• Picture E. A view from the bridge over the ravine towards the engine shed and hoppers of Vulcano.
• Picture F. The hoppers.
• Picture G. What I believe to be an engine inspection pit.
