Even during your arrival, you can see it clearly: Teide, Spain's highest mountain, pierces through the clouds. Rising over 12,000 feet (3,700 meters) out of the Atlantic Ocean, the view is a pretty breathtaking one. Around Tenerife, the mountain dominates the landscape, feeding, sheltering and supporting life on the island. And as its keeper, it has turned Tenerife into a diverse island never void of a natural surprise: You'll find wide volcanic deserts, bizarre tuff formations, and dark lava rocks. You'll discover barren lunar landscape in the Caldera des Teide, mystical laurel forests in the Anaga Mountains, black beaches and steep coasts — and some of the bluest waters you've ever seen.
There's no better way to experience this diverse landscape than by hiking. To help you discover the best of it, we have chosen the ten most beautiful hiking adventures on Tenerife. They lead you through quiet forests, to remote beaches, to deserted villages and of course up to the highest peak. Thanks to the warm temperatures, you can hike here at any time of the year, although it is especially beautiful in autumn.
All of the Tours are easily accessible by public bus. For each hike, we have indicated the appropriate bus lines that will take you to the starting point and back to your accommodation.
The bus timetables are available in English and Spanish at titsa.com/index.php/en.
