Description
Anaga – Land and Sea – Tenerife Stars – 8 hours
First we head west where we visit the small hidden village of Masca in the middle of the Teno area. Here we have time to take some pictures, and for a break next to the local church with a beautiful huge ficus tree of a few hundred years old.
We drive on to the next village los Carrizales where we have the opportunity for a short walk. Furthermore, we drive along the winding road over the mountain and arrive on the north part of the island where local agriculture dominates.
The following stop is in the village of Garachico. It was completely rebuilt after the city was destroyed by the lava flow of the Black Sand Volcano in 1706. Here we have time to step past the old castle of San Miguel, the church of Santa Ana, and the park where we can see an old wine press.
Then we drive to the viewpoint with very spectacular views of the village Chirche for a short photo break.
Subsequently, we continue to a 500-year-old lava flow from the volcano “Boca Cangrejo”, with the view to the neighboring island of La Gomera.
Thereafter we drive a little further in to the Teide National Park, and we arrive at a place where we have the opportunity to take a short walk to the crater of the Sámara volcano.
We also will pass by the old peak of the Teide “El Pico Viejo” with its huge lava field of over 5 km². Fairly recent with just over 200 years ago.
Further on we arrive at the most beautiful place of the park at the famous rocks “Roques de García”, and here we have time for some amazing pictures. Across the street, there is a Hotel named Parador de Cañadas del Teide as well as a cafeteria and a nice souvenir shop.
On the way back to the south, we stop at a great viewpoint of a number of volcanoes and the enormous pine forest. In the village of Vilaflor you will find the oldest and largest pine tree “El Pino Gordo” for our last photo break.
And last but not least, a short drive through the wine region of Abono towards your hotel.
