Hiking in Teide National Park
Walk among volcanoes, lava flows and high-mountain lunar landscapes.
An active private trip to discover Tenerife differently: hiking, mountain biking, kayaking, paddleboarding, canyoning, local encounters and whale and dolphin watching, with arrangements designed to enjoy every day together.
Nature, the sea, forests and mountains: this week reveals several faces of Tenerife through accessible, guided and varied activities.
Explore the volcanic landscapes of Teide and Teno, cross lava flows by mountain bike, paddle beneath the cliffs of Los Gigantes and discover canyoning in a volcanic ravine. Local encounters also play a major role: an artisan cheese dairy, banana plantation, rural traditions and marine wildlife watching.
Seaside accommodation offers a gentler end to each day, with time to swim, spend time together and enjoy Tenerife without turning the holiday into a constant race.

Welcome to the Canary IslandsOn arrival in Tenerife, welcome arrangements and transfer from the airport to your accommodation. Check in and enjoy your first evening beside the ocean, gently settling into the island’s pace.
Meals: dinner.
Teno · Masca · rural traditionsYour first full adventure day takes you to Teno Rural Park in northwestern Tenerife. The road crosses spectacular ravines and ridges, with views of the Masca massif and its almost vertical walls.
Discover Masca hamlet before following a trail through the massif’s ridges. The hike reveals differences in vegetation and microclimate between slopes, along with ancient volcanic formations telling Tenerife’s geological story.
The route reaches Teno Alto, a farming area where goats still supply milk for local cheeses. Also discover “Salto del Pastor”, the traditional technique shepherds use to move through steep terrain.
A stop offers a taste of local cooking before finishing in El Palmar’s agricultural valley. Return to your accommodation, with free time to swim before dinner.
Meals: breakfast, lunch and dinner.
Chinyero · Arenas Negras · laurel forestHead into the island’s highlands for a mountain-biking day. The route begins in Canary Island pine forest, then crosses Chinyero’s lava flows, the last volcano to erupt in Tenerife in 1909.
Continue to Arenas Negras, whose historic eruption profoundly affected the Garachico region. The scenery then changes to rural areas and El Tanque Ecomuseum, which explains islanders’ daily life in the past.
After lunch in the Erjos area, the second part of the route crosses Monte del Agua, a remarkable laurel forest nourished by moisture from the sea of clouds. The route ends near Las Portelas before returning to your accommodation.
Meals: breakfast, lunch and dinner.
Cheese dairy · kayaking · paddleboardingThe day begins at a family-run cheese dairy specialising in goat farming and artisan cheese production. A delicious encounter revealing expertise that remains very much alive in Tenerife.
Then head to the cliffs of Los Gigantes, plunging spectacularly into the Atlantic. In a two-person kayak, accompanied by a guide and safety inflatable boat, paddle along the cliffs, explore coves and enjoy swimming and snorkelling stops.
After lunch and time on Los Guíos beach, the afternoon continues with a paddleboarding session in Los Gigantes’ sheltered waters. Return to your accommodation at the end of the day.
Meals: breakfast, picnic lunch and dinner.
High mountains · volcanoesHead to Tenerife’s volcanic heart. Within Teide National Park’s immense caldera rise Spain’s highest peak, dozens of volcanic cones, lava flows and mineral formations in surprising colours.
After discovering the park’s iconic landscapes, set off on foot from the Samara volcano area towards Montaña Reventada. Gradually leaving the pine forest, the trail rises above 2,000 metres and offers spectacular views of Pico Viejo, Mount Teide and often the sea of clouds.
Your guide helps you read the landscape, understand volcanic tunnels and observe how fauna and flora adapt to high-mountain conditions.
Meals: breakfast, picnic lunch and dinner.
La Orotava · Barranco de Los ArcosThis adventure takes place in northern Tenerife, in the heart of La Orotava Valley. An approach trail crosses pine forest to Barranco de Los Arcos.
After a full briefing on equipment and safety techniques, progressively discover the ravine’s abseils and downclimbs. Narrow passages, erosion-sculpted walls and volcanic colours give this activity a distinctive atmosphere.
The day ends by descending to the coast, with a stop at Playa del Socorro, a beautiful black-sand beach beneath northern Tenerife’s cliffs.
Meals: breakfast, picnic lunch and dinner.
Banana plantation · ocean · whales and dolphinsYour final full adventure day begins at a banana farm. Discover producers’ work, the care banana plants require, harvesting and the specific conditions allowing this iconic fruit to grow in the Canary Islands.
Then head to Los Gigantes to board a boat in search of pilot whales, dolphins and other marine species off Tenerife. For approximately three hours, the crew helps you observe and understand these animals’ behaviour in their natural environment.
The programme also includes swimming time and a meal on board, with beautiful views of Tenerife and La Gomera. Return to your accommodation, then a farewell dinner to end this discovery-filled week.
Meals: breakfast, lunch and dinner.
