Degollada de Cherfe

Highlight • Mountain Pass

Spectacular views of Masca, especially at sunset. From Masca you have to climb almost 500 meters, while from Santiago del Teide the climb becomes more bearable. Good surface and there are times that there is a cart that serves coffee.

Always excellent views. Asphalt not perfect but okay. Virtually no traffic. In March it can be very fresh and gusty here.

February 27, 2022,Coole Tour in den Norden🚲3000Hm/120km

Via Santiago Di Teide down to the north coast.. very, very spectacular. Then up again in Buenavista via Masca.
Amazingly good legs - never on the limit.. the Teide tour 2 days ago was more strenuous..
Highly recommended round. A real highlight on Tenerife!!!👫🥀🍀💓

There are only two directions in Tenerife. Up or down. There is no such thing as driving on the flat. You have to want it.

May 22, 2023,Tenerife Day 5 - Just Another Masca Monday

A stunning ride! Started off in drizzle but headed away from the black clouds into glorious sunshine, quiet roads and luscious greenery. The Masca Wall lived up to its name, the most brutal climb of the day with some gradients hitting 18% 🙀

March 5, 2025,Tenerife Training Camp Day 6 - Masca loop

Drove to Tamaimo for the 3rd time (lucky!!) - hopped on the bike and warmed up on the 5 km climb to Santiago del Teide, which is one of my favourites!
Then over to Masca, which had some incredibly steep ramps (up and down!). A beautiful descend into Buenovista del Norte, filled up the bottles and then climbed towards Erjos, …

February 25, 2025,Teno-Gebirge: Los Gigantes - Masca - Garachico

A Tenerife classic and my first day tour on the island. From Los Gigantes we went straight into the impressive Masca Gorge - a real challenge for legs and lungs, especially for someone like me who is otherwise only used to the flat Brandenburg. The planned route to Punta de Teno unfortunately fell victim to the road closure, but the …
