A deep sinkhole opens up here: It's a volcanic vent approximately 70 meters deep, which can be circumnavigated on secured paths. A few steps allow you to descend into the hole, but trying to see the bottom is doomed to failure.

From the summit of Pico de la Cruz, there's a beautiful view that's well worth every effort! You won't be at the summit long before the summit lords come looking to see if they can find anything. In any case, I consider a visit to the summit a must.

Geologically speaking, this is an extremely fascinating erosion crater, whose 2 million-year-old volcanic history is evident in its spectacular steep slopes. Inside the 9-kilometer-diameter crater lies the famous national park of the same name, which offers beautiful hiking trails.

Really impressive in clear weather

If the weather is good, the short walk to the Pico de la Cruz is worth it. Great views across to Tenerife, Teide and Gomera, and if you're lucky you can also see El Hierro.

There is a branch off the main path at the westernmost tip that leads down to the sea on the other side. Not as well secured as the main path, but not dangerous. Here you can usually enjoy your hiking break in peace and without Insta hotspotters!

You can actually see one of the observatories from here on the other side of the Caldera. You can actually see one of the observatories from here on the other side of the Caldera.

The route runs through the middle of broom, pine forests and with a view of the Teide in Tenerife. Simply a brilliant view
