Teide Masca Desde El Sur De Tenerife

Embark on an unforgettable journey from the south of Tenerife, discovering the island's most treasured landscapes and history. Our adventure begins with an ascent to Vilaflor de Chasna, Spain's highest village, where a stop for a traditional barraquito coffee energizes us for the day ahead. We travel through the vast Corona Forestal Natural Park, a protected expanse of endemic Canary Island pine, before the scenery transforms dramatically. Suddenly, you are inside Teide National Park. Here, we stand in awe before the majestic Mount Teide, the third-tallest volcano on Earth, and explore the otherworldly rock formations of Los Roques de García, set within a massive volcanic caldera. The expedition continues through the rugged beauty of Teno Rural Park, navigating winding roads that reveal gigantic cliffs and deep, time-carved ravines. This dramatic drive leads us to the legendary hamlet of Masca, a tiny village of just 90 inhabitants, spectacularly nestled in the island's deepest gorge. From these hidden heights, we descend to the charming coastal town of Garachico. We will discover its resilient history and the natural swimming pools forged by the historic 1706 volcanic eruption that reshaped its destiny as the island's most important port. Our final destination is Icod de Los Vinos, home to a true natural wonder. Here you will meet the ancient Dragon Tree, the Drago Milenario. This thousand-year-old plant is a living legend and the botanical symbol of Tenerife, providing a magical conclusion to a day spent exploring the incredible history, nature, and volcanic heart of the island. This comprehensive tour showcases the very best of Tenerife in one spectacular day.
