11 things about Volcano Teide

1. Welcome to Volcano Teide! Get ready to enjoy our highly detailed audio guide which lets you discover the three most emblematic trails that run from the Teide Cable Car top station along different routes across the volcano’s slopes.

2. Thanks to the Teide Cable Car you can easily ascend to the top of the volcano at an altitude of 3,555 m and set off on your journey along one of the following trails: Pico Viejo Viewpoint, La Fortaleza Viewpoint, and the Peak of Mount Teide.

3. The Volcano Teide audio guide lets you enjoy a rewarding activity even more by enhancing your visit with detailed, essential information that means you can understand and appreciate the fantastic setting around you.

4. The trail to the Pico Viejo Viewpoint takes you west of the peak of Mount Teide.

5. If you have a permit to access the Mount Teide crater, the Telesforo Bravo trail takes you up to the peak of the volcano.

6. Along the trail you’ll be able to admire the mauve flowers of a shrub known as the “Mount Teide Violet”: a species native to Tenerife that can only be found at altitudes of 2,500 m and above.

7. You’ll discover an astonishing landscape of contrasting colours and outstanding views of the Pico Viejo crater and the 3 closest islands to Tenerife.

8. Alternatively, you could choose to follow the trail to the La Fortaleza Viewpoint, a shorter and flatter route than the Pico Viejo trail.

9. Wouldn’t you like to find out which one has been given this nickname? Our audio guide will show you how to differentiate between these islands that appear to float gently above the clouds on the horizon.

10. Along the trail you’ll pass fumaroles which remind you that the volcano may be dormant but it still has a life of its own.

11. Admire the impressive sea of clouds beneath your feet and in the distance, on a clear day, have fun spotting several other islands in the Canary Islands archipelago, such as the famous “Isla Bonita” or “Beautiful Island”.
