DISCOVER OUR HIKES IN THE ANAGA MOUNTAINS

The Anaga mountains make up the oldest part of Tenerife. Located in the northeastern tip of the island, this biodiverse region is one of the best places to hike in the Canary Islands.

From misty forest walks to exhilarating coastal trails, the Anaga massif offers scenic variety, solitude, and arguably the best views of Tenerife’s coastline. Anaga feels like a prehistoric paradise with its jungle-like laurel forest, whimsical dragon trees, and green-carpeted peaks and ravines.

Hiking in the Anaga Mountains region

Laurel forests, steep cliffs and charming villages in the Anaga Mountains.

The north-east of Tenerife is a little-known area to many. The Anaga mountain range is home to fairytale laurel forests combined with steep cliffs, and it is remarkably greener than the rest of Tenerife.

There is also regular fog and it is always a few degrees cooler here than elsewhere on the island. For many hikers, Anaga is one of the most beautiful and spectacular areas on Tenerife to hike with unspoilt caminos (footpaths) for all levels.
