The Llano de Ucanca viewpoint is one of those that offers one of the best panoramic views of Teide with the plain at its feet.

In spring, the ground cannot filter all the accumulated water and a lagoon is formed that produces an even more incredible view with the reflection of the peak in the water.

In the heart of the Las Cañadas del Teide National Park we find one of the most visited viewpoints in this place due to its strategic location, the Llano Uncanca viewpoint.

The viewpoint is at the foot of the road and has a small car park. A plain that joins old paths and where the beginning of Trail number 26, the Ucanca plain, is. The views that can be appreciated are frontal of both Teide, Los Azulejos, and Pico Viejo, as well as the entire plain known as the Ucanca valley. This geographical accident was formed by the collapse of a block, which favored the current appearance of Las Cañadas and other areas of the island, such as the famous Valle de La Orotava.
