We started the hike in a light rain and fog, finishing with blue skies and sunshine. The contrast and the landscapes were magnificent and magical. A great training hike before climbing Teide...

June 23, 2024,Alleinstehender Felsen – Blick auf Benijo Runde von Roque de las Bodegas

A breathtaking viewpoint awaits you... ✨
Not only the view itself is remarkable, but also the way there.
It leads along the beaches of Rouge de las Bodegas, Almáciga and Benijo, where the path becomes adventurous, through rocky coastal landscapes. The climb starts in Benijo and leads steeply uphill, first along a rather improvised "road" and then really high up …

February 25, 2024,Teneriffa - Alleinstehender Felsen – Runde von Benijo

The hike near Benijo really pushed me to my limits - around 450 meters in altitude is extremely demanding on my fitness.

The tour is really nice and offers good views of the Roques de Anaga. Initially we go along the coast on a good road to the tiny village of El Draguillo. From there the climb into the mountains …

Great circular route. It's best to start from Benijo into the mountains and back down to the coast via El Draguilo. The advantage is that you walk up and not down the gravelly part of the path. Surefootedness required. Hiking poles are an advantage. Some somewhat exposed areas. Overall, a wonderful circular route. Be sure to take the part of …

The time is wrong, it was 2 hours with the search for flowers. After the branch many habenaria and A. hemionitis.
Very nice tour.

Not really an easy tour. Long climb, partly loose ground downhill

Do not rely on the hiking time. It took us at least 2 hours and 30 minutes. We stopped many times.
Great spots to enjoy the site.
Just look, listen and let yourself go.
A few singles where you must not be afraid of heights. Be careful of the wind.
Check it before you leave.

March 2, 2024,Benijo - El Draguillo Runde

Today we drove to Benijo in the northern corner of Tenerife for a hike parallel to the Atlantic coast to El Draguillo. Since the rest of the coastal hiking trail is closed for safety reasons, we now went uphill towards Cruz del Draguillo. Halfway up we took the turnoff back to Benijo and had something to eat there and then …

November 15, 2024,Benijo Strand – Uitzicht op Benijo rondtocht vanuit Benijo

Technically part of the path was closed due to rockslides (the path down at the waterfront). So we did the route in reverse direction. Worked very well! Benijo beach was closed unfortunately.
