Une autre vision plus triste est celle des destructions causées par les coulées de lave rejetées par ce petit cratère. Les habitants du village font preuve de courage et reviennent après avoir quitté leurs maisons ensevelies. Tant bien que mal, ils reconstruisent leur vie près du volcan, pour lequel ils ont un profond respect. Cette randonnée offre un festival des sens.
