Do you have questions about this tour?

Starting from the roaring Atlantic Ocean in the north-west, this multifarious week of hiking takes you across the unique mountain scenery of black volcanic rock into the sunny south-west. In the enchanting little coastal town of Garachico you enjoy breathtaking views onto the vast Atlantic Ocean and the green northern coast of the island. You cross several vegetation areas – each emanating its unique charm – and delve into the alpine world of the Teno-mountain range. The hike through the Masca-gorge is an extraordinary highlight to look forward to, with its steep towering rockfaces and unique flora. In the south-west you walk along ancient bridle paths and stay overnight at the highest point of the Canaries, where the grand finale of your hiking holiday is an impressive walk through the biggest National Park of the island.

The Teno Mountains, the Masca Gorge, Mount Teide or the idyllic coastal town of Garachico: no highlight in the north of Tenerife will escape you during the hiking week with Eurohike. Hiking on an island is always a very special experience, and this hiking trip combines mountain and coastal hikes. So you can enjoy not only the hilly landscape of Tenerife, but also the deep blue Atlantic.

  • Imposing contrasts: In Tenerife contrasts come together. On the one hand, there are the black lava beaches and the white lunar landscape. Or the numerous hours of sunshine and the snow-covered Teide. 
  • Spain’s highest mountain: The Pico del Teide is the highest peak in the Canaries, and also Spain. From the Teide National Park you have a magnificent view of the snow topped mountain.

Cooling down in the lava swimming pool of the coastal town of Garachico kicks off your week of hiking on Tenerife. Over eight days you explore the island and its valleys, coasts and charming villages. The challenging daily hikes are between ten and 15 kilometres long and can be very demanding in places. As some of the hikes lead along relatively steep paths and trails, a solid basic level of fitness is necessary to enjoy the week. On the boat trip from Playa de Masca to Los Gigantes you can enjoy the view of Tenerife from the sea. Planning your first trip to Tenerife? You can rely on Eurohike's extensive travel and route material, which will be sent to you before you start your trip.

Itinerary at a glance

Wandering through Tenerife's north, you will pass through the diverse Teno Mountains, the cliffs of Los Gigantes and the famous white moonscape. A bath in the lava pools of Garachico is an experience.

Garachico is located on the roaring Atlantic coast in the north-west of Tenerife. The old part of town boasts beautiful mansions, churches and the ‚Castillo San Miguel’. The volcanic rock pools invite to a refreshing plunge.

Hotel (example): La Quinta Roja

You hike through the very recent volcanic area of Garachico along historic paths. The strenuous ascent to the Ermita de San Francisco is rewarded with a stunning view onto the town situated below, but first and foremost onto the Atlantic Ocean and the entire northern coastline. After a short break in San Juan del Reparo you descend across the fertile landscape past colourful flowers, cactee and agaves back to the sea again.

Hotel (example): La Quinta Roja

An amazing hike from the sea into the uplands. HIking through remote gorges, characteristic cultivated land and laurel forests you reach the tranquil mountain village of Erjos. You continue along alpine paths through the Teno-mountain range until you arrive at Santiago del Teide. On today’s hike you walk across several vegetation areas – a true paradise for flora and fauna enthusiasts.

Hotel (example): La Casona del Patio

Enjoy panoramic views on your transfer through terraced cultivated areas, while passing grazing herds of goats, to the magical Teno-mountain range. Initially the route takes you up to a mountain ridge from where you can enjoy a marvellous panoramic view. Then you proceed along the ridge over to the Tabaiba pass and onwards on a stunning high altitude path to the remote mountain village of Masca. From here you have an extraordinary view onto the western coastline and the mighty Masca-gorge with its black rocks. Return to Santiago del Teide by public bus.

Hotel (example): La Casona del Patio

You walk directly from the hotel on the enchanting King's Path down to the village of Los Gigantes, with its 450 m high cliffs. Today you will have enough time to explore the lava beaches below the second highest cliffs in Europe, visit the harbour and for a swim in the pool or the roaring Atlantic Ocean.

Hotel (example): Barcelo Santiago

Transfer to the neat village of Adeje, from there you proceed along ancient bridle paths, which were used formerly to transport goods across the mountains, across remote mountainous areas. The route offers ample panoramic views alongside terraced fields and forests, leading you high above the infernal gorge towards Ifonche. You continue along varied trails to the idyllic mountain region of Arona, situated below the mighty Teide-massif.

Hotel (example): Hotel Spa Villalba

On today’s tour you experience yet another one of Tenerife’s unique landscapes. You walk up to a viewpoint located at over 1800m in altitude just below Mount Teide, from where you can spot the ‚white lunarscape’. Let your imagination go wild whilst watching these bizarre sand stone formations on the slopes created by wind, water and the weather. An amazing contrast compared to the black volcanic rock of the past few days.

Sustainably on the go

Our contribution to climate protection

  • Active vacations are among the most environmentally friendly and healthiest ways to travel. Traveling on foot means moving in a climate-conscious way while conserving resources.

  • Our carefully selected accommodations, like us, are committed to lived sustainability. They are deeply rooted in their regions, work with local suppliers, provide attractive employment opportunities for local residents, and thereby strengthen local value creation.

  • With the Eurohike On Tour app, we offer a digital version of our travel documents, allowing you to navigate confidently while on the road. By moving to digital formats, we help conserve valuable natural resources.

  • Eurohike has been certified as a sustainable tour operator with the internationally recognized Travelife certification. To achieve this, more than 261 requirements were carefully met.

  • Even though hiking vacations (and cycling vacations with Eurobike) are among the most climate-friendly forms of travel, they still generate CO₂ emissions. These are carefully measured using the “Carmacal” calculator. Through our commitment to selected climate protection projects, we aim to give something back to the environment.
