Anaga Biosphere Reserve
Anaga Biosphere Reserve
After a pleasant transfer by local bus from La Laguna to the heart of the Anaga Rural Park, we commence our walk from a vantage point with spectacular views over the entire university town and the imposing Teide in the background. We have the opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of this magnificent biosphere reserve, which serves as a vital testament to the natural heritage of the island of Tenerife. The landscapes are of such great harmony and beauty that they leave a lasting impression on every visitor. The Canary laurel forest, one of the oldest and most significant natural heritage sites on the island, provides visitors with a distinctive sensory experience. We gain insight into the rich endemic flora and fauna, observe the geological remnants, and appreciate the picturesque countryside with its quaint rural settlements. We stop at a typical hamlet situated between two ravines for refreshment and to sample local tapas and wines (at your own expense) while awaiting the return bus to La Laguna. Discover this remarkable natural haven, home to a vast array of biodiversity, with the guidance of your local expert. Wear hiking shoes or trainers with good soles and bring raincoat, hat, sun protection and enough water with you.
This hike is suitable for children from 12 years old. Minors must be accompanied by an adult.
