From here you have a beautiful view over the coast in the north of Tenerife. From the summit station of the Teleférico, a hiking trail leads to the Mirador de la Fortaleza observation deck.

So close to the summit ... From here you can squint up to the Teide crater rim. To protect nature, you can only get all the way up with permission. Therefore, at this point: just look, but do not step inside.
