Buenavista - Teno Alto - Punta Teno (Hicking)
This is a challenging hike that offers a complete experience, combining the majesty of the mountainous landscapes with the serenity of the coastline in the northwest corner of Tenerife. It begins in the municipality of Buenavista and climbs to Teno Alto, famous for its rural authenticity and breathtaking views. The route continues descending toward the coast, culminating at the spectacular Punta de Teno, where you’ll have the opportunity to enjoy a refreshing snorkeling session in its crystal-clear waters.
We also have the option of visiting a local goat farm, where you can taste artisanal cheeses and witness a shepherd’s jump demonstration, a traditional technique used by Canarian shepherds to navigate rough terrain.
If you want to add an extra experience to this route, as a complementary activity, we offer a 2-hour boat ride along the cliffs of Los Gigantes starting from Punta de Teno to Playa de Masca.
