Climbing Teide Crater Tour
What's Included
Stand on the roof of Spain! This exclusive tour takes you to the very top of Mount Teide. Access to the crater is strictly limited by the National Park, but this package handles the hard-to-get permits and logistics for you.
The Ascent
We start with a comfortable cable car ride that whisks you up to 3,555 meters. From there, the real adventure begins. Accompanied by an expert guide, you will hike the final stretch to the Pico del Teide crater.
At the Summit
The reward at 3,715 meters is unmatched: panoramic views of Tenerife and, on clear days, the neighboring islands of La Gomera, El Hierro, and La Palma. You’ll also see the active sulfur fumaroles that remind you you're standing on an active (though dormant) volcano.
Science & Legend
The experience includes access to the “Science and Legend” exhibition at the Visitors’ Centre, where you can learn about the volcanic origins of the island before we head back down.
