Quad excursion to Teide Volcano, Tenerife
Description
The Teide National Park is the largest in the Canary Islands. It is an excursion not to be missed by anyone visiting Tenerife. A unique landscape of craters, volcanoes and rivers of petrified lava surrounding the impressive silhouette of the volcano, which rises to an altitude of 3,718 metres and was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 2007. With this experience you will have the opportunity to cross 2,400 metres of the volcano's total altitude in a comfortable, entertaining and relaxed way, passing through the villages of Arona, La Escalona and Villaflor. Crossing the Corona Forestal Natural Park to the first viewpoint, called Boca de Tauce, where the landscape changes completely, going from lush pine forests to an arid lunar landscape caused by the lava emanating from the volcanic eruption, always with the imposing Teide as a backdrop.
What we are going to do?
We will do a 4 hours guided quad tour around the most impressive landscapes of the Teide Natural Park. The experience starts with the pick-up at the accommodation (only in the south of Tenerife) and a short introduction to the handling of the quad and safety. The route goes first through Las Chafiras, passing through the village of Las Zocas, San Miguel, Cho Pancho and taking a break in Vilaflor, where we can taste a typical coffee called ''Barraquito'' and rest for about 20 minutes. After the break, we will return to the "TF21" road towards the Teide National Park, stopping at the Boca Tauce viewpoint to take some pictures of the incredible volcanological landscapes and get information about the creation of this spectacular place.
