Originally, I wanted to have a relaxing day today. However, just after 9 a.m., as the sun was cresting the hills (and peaking through the clouds), I got antsy again. So, I went on the hike that I had originally planned for the next day. In the end, I was very happy that I did, because it was a gorgeous hike – and who knows how the weather will be on the next day?

More risco, more fun!
After having enjoyed a relaxing day on the day before, it was time for another hike. Today, I explored yet another quite popular hiking destination in Tenerife: the Teno mountains. Continue reading More risco, more fun!

Side trip to the moon?
Today, I decided not to drive anywhere for hiking. Instead, I started my hike directly on my doorstep again: In just two hours, you can hike from Vilaflor (almost) to the moon – or more precisely, to a “lunar landscape”: the Paisaje Lunar. Continue reading Side trip to the moon?

1000 metres below Teide
Today, I drove up to the Teide plateau one more time. I did not fancy the ascent to Teide itself, though (both due to its high elevation, and the humungous elevation gain). Instead, I opted to climb up to the summit of Guajara (which is almost exactly 1000 metres lower than Teide). From there, one has also very good views of the surrounding landscape – including Teide itself, of course. Continue reading 1000 metres below Teide

Above the clouds
Today, I finally said farewell to the Anaga mountains– probably not a day too early: Since the afternoon on the day before, it had been raining on and off. For quite a while, it looked as if the rain would also follow me to my next destination. Luckily, however, I finally found myself above the clouds: at the foot of Teide volcano.

Taganana in Anaga
As the weather was supposed to be quite changable today (and I felt more like having another lazy afternoon), I decided against a bigger excursion today. Instead, I went hiking in the hills around my Taganana. This meant that I was already familiar with (some of) the views. Still, it was a nice hike. Continue reading Taganana in Anaga

Wild Anaga North coast
Today, I (presumably) reached the easternmost point of my Anaga excursions: I hiked from the village of Benijo to the hamlet of El Draguillo. Continue reading Wild Anaga North coast

Lots of bends to the sea
Slowly, I am working my way East in the Anaga mountains: Already on the day before, I had a view of Afur from Taborno. Today, I drove to the former village, and hiked from there to Playa del Tamadite. Continue reading Lots of bends to the sea

From the English peak to Tenerife’s Matterhorn
Today, I opted for a bit shorter hike: First, I descended from Pico del Inglés to Taborno. From there, I circled around Roque de Taborno. Continue reading From the English peak to Tenerife’s Matterhorn

From mountain to sea
I want to dedicate the next few days of my holidays to the Anaga mountains in the North East of the island of Tenerife. In other to get an idea of the different altitude levels of this nature park, I decided to start with a hike from the view point Cruz del Carmen (at almost 1000 metres above sea level) to Punta del Hidalgo (at the coast).
