• Anaga - The Anaga Mountains occupy a large section of the north-east part of Tenerife and consists of coastline, ravines, Laurel forests and villages that are so remote it is amazing that anyone actually lives in them. This whole area is a protected natural landscape, it is breathtakingly beautiful and full of twists and turns that will delight and amaze. Our walk is a great introduction to the area and its outstanding natural beauty. It is full of spectacular contrasts, and home to a wealth of native fauna and flora, a direct result of the region’s isolation and ecological variety. The area’s special climate has led to the existence of one of the most important specimens of laurisilva or laurel forest in the world. This primitive forest dates from the Tertiary Period and is only preserved in the Canaries, Madeira and several islands of the Azores. Laurisilva is an extremely important resource, since its dense mass retains moisture, refills the aquifers (natural water deposits on the island), as well as creating and preserving fertile soil. There are many routes in this area.
  Distance: typically about 12 km, with up to 600m ascent/descent, moderate to hard taking 5 hours.

On the 19th of December, 1994, the area was re-designated as the Anaga Rural Park, leading to the establishment of three additional sections within the park boundaries: the Ijuana Integral Nature Reserve (T-1), the El Pijaral Integral Nature Reserve, and the Los Roques de Anaga Integral Nature Reserve. These reserves received top-level environmental protection to ensure the preservation of their susceptible ecosystems. Furthermore, entry to Monte de Aguirre, an uncommonly preserved ancient laurel forest, is regulated.
