VISIT MT TEIDE
EN ROUTE
Given its excellent location, visiting Mount Teide by car is very easy. It is well connected by roads, and can be easily reached from any point of the island.
Since in Tenerife, all roads lead to the volcano, Teide Guide is your guide for visiting Mount Teide by car.
Tenerife, an island of short distances and contrasts.
Visiting Tenerife has many advantages. You can spend a day lying on the beach and relaxing under the warm rays of the sun while staring at the omnipresent peak of Mount Teide. Sea and mountains in a single view. Isn’t it amazing?
Another great advantage of Tenerife is that the distances are short. In fact, the distance to Teide from the main points of the island ranges between 45 and 64 km, which means that to visit Mount Teide you can go up using one road whose main access is near the area where you are staying, and to go back you can use another road, allowing you to enjoy completely different landscapes, and return to the starting point on the same day.
The island is full of contrasts. The roads leading to Teide are not an exception. We provide the Teide Guide and you choose the route for visiting Mount Teide by car! You won’t want to stick to one single road.
