Join us for a full-day guided Hiking Tour in the Anaga Mountains and the Enchanted Forest, a protected UNESCO Biosphere Reserve in Tenerife. Designed as a complete small-group experience, this carefully planned journey combines scenic drives, forest immersion, and mountain hiking, offering a balanced mix of adventure, landscapes, and a deeper understanding of the island’s unique natural environment.
We pick you up from your accommodation in the southern or eastern coastal areas and begin our journey towards the north of the island. After reaching the Anaga Mountains, we continue driving through the forests, sharing insights about the local climate and landscapes before arriving at the starting point of our introductory walk. From there, we begin a short scenic walk of about 25–35 minutes to enjoy the atmosphere of the Enchanted Forest. Depending on the cloud cover, you may catch distant views of Mount Teide or find yourself surrounded by the mysterious clouds that often cover the Laurisilva Forest.
After exploring the Enchanted Forest, we travel by vehicle towards the starting point of the main hike, enjoying the scenery along the way. On the road, we pass a small cliffside cave village that is still inhabited. From the trail, you can see how these homes — partly carved into volcanic rock — are still in use, showing a unique way of life shaped by the island’s landscape.
The main hike continues across forested hills and volcanic ridges, with sweeping views, ascents and descents, and a changing landscape. You will walk along narrow paths winding across rocky ridgelines, open forest slopes and valleys before reaching a historic water channel, now mostly dry except after rare heavy rains.
Throughout the tour, your guide shares stories about the region’s past and present in a warm and friendly atmosphere, keeping the experience relaxed and engaging.
We take a relaxed picnic break in nature — either on a hilltop or inside a large cave with canyon views, depending on conditions and group preference.
Near the end of the route, the trail includes a short but physically demanding final climb. This rewarding challenge offers a strong sense of accomplishment and memorable views at the top.
After the tour, you will receive 20–30 digital photos taken throughout the day, sent via WhatsApp — a lasting memory of your time in Tenerife.
This tour is suitable for solo travellers, couples, families, and small groups of friends. It is a great fit both for experienced hikers and for those who are new to hiking but are in good physical shape and comfortable staying active for several hours outdoors.
