Restos del importante acueducto que había. Sin ningún cartel explicativo.
Beautiful place can’t get enough of it, but they should place more small shops to buy some drinks or something, like when you arrive from the roads on the mountain up to teide. But never miss this place if you’re there just rent a car and go to visit it! Its worth it.
Heel mooi en imposant park met een zeer gevarieerd landschap wat in verschillende klimaten overgaat als je goed rond kijkt. Verder is het echt een geweldig mooi landschap wat zeer wisselend en mooi is. En het bijzondere is het vulkaanlandschap wat onder andere gebruikt is voor de film starwars.
Amazing moon-like scenery. The best I ever saw so far. Great hiking place. Simply beautiful.
A truly stunning landscape. Teide National Park was my most frequented stop during my stay in Tenerife, and I can't wait to revisit it at some point in my life. Magnificent views and any stargazing experience you might have is one you'll never forget.
The views themselves are absolutely breath taking. We took the hike to the top of the volcano, it was challenging and I would suggest people really read the recommendations and bring hiking shoes and gear.
The one thing that put me off completely though, is that along the path (whole hike took us about 10 hrs with decent also), there were multiple pees and poops, that definitely looked and smelled human. The restroom on the road up only opens up at 17:00 and seems to be for the people sleeping overnight.
I can fully understand the needs, but perhaps there should be signs to at least ask the participants to go a bit off the path to do their needs, even if just for this.

Schitterend en bizarre natuur. Een must als je op Tenerife bent. Aanrader, alleen de rit er naar toe is al spectaculair 💯 houdt wel rekening met een temperatuur die 15 graden lager is dan aan de kust
Teide National Park offers a truly otherworldly experience with its breathtaking landscapes and unique geological features. The majestic Mount Teide is not only a stunning sight but also an inviting challenge for hiking enthusiasts. Visiting Teide National Park is an unforgettable adventure that reconnects you with the natural world in an inspiring and serene environment 😍🗻
We have been on a tour, just me and my friend and let me tell you: it was our best time of the trip!!! We have left at 2pm to go and eat in a very typical place to reach the Volcano and take several amazing pictures until we waited for the sunset and it was just….something ELSE!!! We really suggest you to go on a tour because it could be very dangerous at night and it ends up with the stars view which made it even more special! A must do!
What beautiful landscapes you can admire while traveling around the island, and the Natural Corona Park creates amazing images on your way, from every side of the island.
Must see! We booked the cable car + a guided tour to Pico Viejo viewpoint. We recommend you book the rides in advance as we didn't and waited for an hour for the next one. Time flew by as it was a wonderful scene! There is a separate line for the one with a tour guide and a "VIP" bracelet, but there is no difference from standard tickets. The stations have a QR code where you can listen to the description. Make sure to drink water and dress warmly. They have clean restrooms so don't be stingy on hydrating. The high altitude will make you palpitate. Enjoy!
Our planned summit tour was canceled due to strong winds, leading us to explore all sides of the Teide Park without lengthy hikes.
If you're not planning extended hikes, you can explore and witnessing both the beautiful highland and volcanic terrain with pine tree parks in the north, and the more rocky, Mars-like atmosphere in the south. Visiting both sides ensures you experience the diverse beauty Teide Park has to offer.

Spectacular drive from the North, very busy when you get to the volcanic plateau. No room to pull in at viewpoints, even in January. Book ahead for cable car. There is quite a quick turnaround of people at the cable car, so you should find parking.
Base a bit disappointing, I thought there would be better views from the base station. Adequate cafe.
8 mins for 1200m ascent, quite spectacular. 8t is quite crowded. Was surprised how much the altitude affected me, even the short walk to the viewpoint made me dizzy, and I'm normally quite fit! Only allowed 1 hour at the top which isn't long if you walk to the viewpoint. The views are truly stunning. It is expensive, but worth it.

Love This place, let's hope its not closed in coming years to cars as it is just a truly special place. With many great Landscapes and walks.
Get ready to be amazed! Feast your eyes on the awe-inspiring view of the majestic volcano Mount Teide. Its towering presence and breathtaking beauty will leave you in complete awe and wonder.
If you're looking for an unforgettable adventure
during your holiday, then you absolutely cannot miss hiking Mount Guajara. The stunning view from the top is worth every bit of the challenging trek, and trust me, this experience will leave you with unforgettable memories. I strongly urge you to add this hike to your itinerary and embark on this adventure that you won't regret.

We took quad bikes up to the park and we had beautiful views. Dress warm because it gets chilly at this altitude. Make sure you sit and take it all in. It truly is gorgeous.
A park of breathtaking geological beauty, incredible lights, starry nights like I have rarely seen. And above all calm, serenity. We stayed 3 days. A wonderful memory.
Nuestra historia...camino natural para visitar..es ideal para familias..ir en bici..caballo o caminando..se puede acceder a las salinas..paraje natural hermosísimo
Amazing sunset location, see the sun setting into the clouds from above. The perfect place to finish a day after hiking in the Teide National Park. I can really recommend it to stop by and enjoy the magic moment. A memory that I will not forget!
We have done the PR-TF-8 circular hiking.We started in Taganana toward the peak.It was a good choice due to the difficult hiking at the beginning We have finished the circle trail (it was 20km for us) in 6.5 hours.You can join to the route somewhere else and you can cut the whole trail smaller distance and finish them more days.The route is difficult so you need to be in a good physical condition to finish it in 1 day.
Nice parque with a unique history.
We took the cable car up here and the views were amazing.
But you have to book the tickets in advance, there was no chance in getting in spontaneously.
It’s super cold and windy up there!

This for me and my family will remain as on of the best activity in Tenerife. The nature is so rich here. There is a calmness that is rarely seen in urban life. The hiking trips are well indicated and so many of them. Bring your beachwear for enjoying some of the best black sand beaches you would see. Village of Chinmada is very cute and specially the trek to the viewpoint is amazing. Bring in lots of fluids. Don't miss
Wowsers what a breath taking experience. I had absolutely no idea that this national park would be as impressive as it was. I highly suggest hiring a car to go and visit this place and you will be TAKEN ABACK BY ITS BEAUTY ! it looks like something from another planet. I never saw anything like it.
Beautiful pine trees and volcanic rocks all around. Also the roads are in very good shape. Nice to visit during the day as the temperatures are lower than on sea level.
The most wonderful place I have been to. Nice decor, mistic and fairytale wise. The landscape is amazing and the view points are breathtaking.
Had amazing excursion up to Teide with King buggies! Perfect weather, amazing views and a stunning volcano, lots of old lava fields so beautiful... well worth the venture up to the top.
Beautiful and super isolated place. Best for day trip and for resting a soul. No Internet connection.
Excursion, Teide by night. Fantastic trip up to Mt Teide to view the volcano and surrounding lave fields. Enjoyed an amazing sunset, albeit shared with hundreds of others. Then, we enjoyed the incredible night sky, unspoilt by light pollution.
Must visit place. The heart of this beautiful island. I would highly recommend to take guided tour first then take a shot with your own (rented) transport so you can stop and enjoy every moment and scenery when you feel so.
Amazing trip through the mountains and beautiful landscapes during the drive
What a beautiful parc! It was a breath taking road trip and it is worth the visit.
El Teide and its landscapes are amazing.
If you have difficulties with walking this is not a good place to visit.
It is a busy place with lots of tourists, buses and cars.

Really nice loop trek, easy walking even with kids, few rocks to step over, at the end is quite steep hike, but nothing dramatic. You can see some butterflies, birds and many lizards. Preferably go morning to avoid crowds and easily park.
If you want to disconnect from the hustle and bustle for a while this is a fabulous place to visit full of peacefulness, fresh air and natural beauty...Refreshing..
Sunset on the highest spanish Volcano ( Mount Teide) 2000ft anove sea level with fantastic views and colours
What a beautiful park, full of laurel. That smell that hit you from time to time was mind blowing. We did the short 1.5h round course.
The most unique and amazing views in Tenerife. You can drive with car quite far, up to 1500m above sea level. The landscapes are amazing, it feels like another planet. I very highly recommend going for the sunrise, it is out of this world experience and it is completely tourist-free. Just check in advance you are on the right side and high enough so you can see the sun rising.
We follower Path of the senses forest walk 1,2 and 3. But continued down to the Mercedes, there was ample parking at one of the stop along the way. There was also a designated place to barbecue.
Incredible place, must see.
We hiked from Taganana on the coastal route to PlayaTa Tamadiste through vine growing areas and Mediterrean flora. Then to create a circuit we went towards Afur via the barranco, river bed. From Afur there’s a 600 metres ascend through laurel forest to the peak with a viewing point where we were among the passing clouds. Then a 300 metres descend first through the forest, then ferns, flowering bushes full of bees and palm trees again.

Además del propio acueducto también es muy interesante la vista que ofrece de gran parte de la bahía de Cádiz.
Ideal para unos prismáticos.

Magical. Beautiful, Charming, Peaceful, Wild, Gorgeous…. Too bad we didn’t have enough time to explore more but we will next time.
Make sure you feel comfortable with narrow roads and curves before you head up.
A total different climate than the rest of the island.

Many walks begin at the Visitor Centre. Limited parking so choose day and time with this in mind. Visitors Centre has a small number of exhibits on show and an informative volcanic film of the area, and island, that they present in 5 different languages. Depending on groups and timing of visit. Ask receptionist for time table. They showed English Version for just the two of us.
Great walks and great views. Recommend sturdy walking attire and an extra layer and or weatherproof garment. Low cloud can come in quickly and unexpectedly. Take care. Take own refreshments if required none to purchase here but there is a restaurant close by.

De pequeño merodeaba en bicicleta por esa zona ... Pero nunca imaginé la intrahistoria que tenía. Me ha encantado ver esta pequeña joya, la cual da comienzo a un corto sendero que cruza parte del Pinar de los Franceses (que ya de por si tiene una más que sobrada la historia que tiene) hasta llegar a las marismas donde poder disfrutar del paisaje y una gran cantidad de aves autóctonas.
Beautiful place, breathtaking views and real nature.
Always good to visit. Great birding area.
Incredible nice place to hike, driving with motorcycle around this enormous park. Very nice view points. For sure to recommend.
Pequeña fuente junto a la pista forestal
Vestigios de lo q fuera uno de los mayores acueductos Romanos . Puedes hacer un bonito sendero en los alrededores .
One of the best hikes we’ve done in a very long time! Super exciting and a bit dangerous even with the very strong winds😅
We hiked to Pico de la Concha, breathtaking views!

Muy interesante, restos arqueológicos y un pinar bien conservado
Stunning scenery and wildlife!!! A must visit if you like the out doors 😊😊😊😊😊😊
Some of the most beautiful flora and landscapes ever.
Beautiful place to hike, picnic and take pictures on the way to Ronda. There're a couple of restaurants (Paradores) and hotels to stay. Ronda is just 10 minutes away so you can enjoy this beautiful small city and stay just outside to enjoy the mountain air and views.
Perfect walk
Interesante por lo q significó. En invierno un paisaje agrícola muy verde.
Lugar natural de Sierra Nevada
