Teide National Park

First, we’ll drive our way up towards the town of Arona, and to the highest town of Spain Vilaflor. Here we’ll have some time for a short break to walk through the peaceful town and perhaps to enjoy a good-tasting local coffee.
After our break, we’ll continue our journey through the enormous pine forest where we’ll be able to get to the largest and very old pine tree “El Pino Gordo” for a photo break.
Further on we arrive at the famous place of the park with an amazing landscape of different lava materials, and the great famous rocks named “Roques de García”. Here we’ll have some time to explore the landscape and discover the amazing area. Also, there is a small hotel up there, “Parador de Cañadas del Teide”, a cafeteria and a nice souvenir shop.
Later on, 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.
Then we continue to a five hundred years old lava flow from the volcano “Boca Cangrejo”, with the great view to the neighboring island of La Gomera.
Thereafter, we drive a little further into 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.
On the way back to the south, we stop at a fantastic viewpoint of several volcanoes also showing a bizarre volcanic landscape.
