    Montaña Guajara 2718m. Large summit plateau overlooking Pico Teide, with fantastic 360 views. Completed an anticlockwise direction. Usually completed in a clockwise direction but I prefer a steeper ascent and more gradual descent. Often above the cloud.

      Bring good equipment to keep warm at the top. A great trail to stop and take photos and enjoy the scenery.

        It can be very windy in the open spaces...
