Hiking Tenerife ESENCIAL
It is also one of the very few places in the world that has the luxury of having all the climates of the world in such a small area. In a single day we can hike the snow-capped peaks of El Teide and walk along a coastal cliff with dreamlike views.
Winter, summer, spring or autumn, the island is definitely a dream for any hiker regardless of their level of experience and skill.
We have routes that range from the gentlest of complex family-friendly hikes with little gradient and idyllic scenery to the steepest of gorges that only the most expert hikers dare to cross.
Streams, waterfalls, crags, cliffs and perfect beaches that escape the mass
The island is a melting pot of climates, soils and vegetation. You can wander from the desert panorama of volcanic calderas with rugged and rustic landscapes to the most fertile valleys populated by the mythical Canary Island pine.
Snowy paths and icy crags that outline alpine landscapes that combine with the warm trails of the coast combined with the view of the stone rocks that guard the passage of walkers.

ACCOMMODATION
Subject to availability:
HOTEL RURAL FINCA SALAMANCA
This accommodation is set in the surroundings of an extensive farm of avocado trees and other tropical fruits.
Güimar, a town in the northeast of Tenerife, is a municipality with an ancient agricultural tradition that is timidly opening up to tourism with this type of rural accommodation.
The Hotel Rural Finca Salamanca offers all the services and comforts that are typical of an accommodation of these characteristics, in a wonderful setting surrounded by plants and flowers of all kinds.
With spacious rooms designed with care and elegance, harmoniously integrated in a landscaped environment where large centenary trees survive today among the avocado plantation.
HOTEL & SPA EL TEJAR
Vilaflor, located in the foothills of Mount Teide at 1,400 metres above sea level, is the highest village in Spain. In this high mountain setting is the Hotel & Spa El Tejar, a small family-run hotel with a warm welcome and exquisite service. The treatment is meticulous and the sensation of feeling "at home" persists throughout your stay.
The 14 rooms of the hotel are warm and very comfortable, traditionally decorated with no detail missing. The hotel is ideally situated in an oasis of peace and tranquillity where absolute silence reigns supreme at night.
But in the lounge you can't miss a pleasant wood-burning fireplace that will keep the coldest nights warm. Although the sun usually presides intensely the daily hours in an enclave located above the clouds, on the south side of the island of Tenerife.
HOTEL RURAL GARA
The intricate streets of Garachico are lined with old palatial mansions that survived the eruption of 1706. It is in these surroundings that we find the Hotel Rural Gara, an old traditional Canarian building, beautifully restored and facing the infinite ocean.
From its roof terrace, now converted into a breakfast area, you can enjoy an uninterrupted view of the sea overlooking the small town of Garachico. In the area surrounding the hotel you will find natural swimming pools and a genuine local atmosphere, as well as many terraces, restaurants and small tapas bars.
The rooms of the Hotel Rural Gara maintain the traditional tone of the building but add all kinds of comforts, typical of this type of accommodation. Garachico, located at sea level, is an ideal place to enjoy the last nights in Tenerife.
