El Teide is an active volcano and the highest point of Spain at 3718m. , with iron rich basaltic cinders that have oxidized to give the reddish and brown colors. There is clearly visible the lava flow on this Stratovolcano that petrified after its last eruption in 1909. The rock appeared on one thousand peseta bank notes of Spain, with Teide in the background. Teide national park, Tenerife Island, Canary islands, Spain. (Photo by Nicolas Economou/NurPhoto)
