Teide National Park

The Teide National Park (Spanish: Parque Nacional del Teide) is a national park on the Spanish island of Tenerife, which includes the highest peak of the country, the 3718-meter high Teide volcano. Since 2007 it has been a World Heritage Site. The 18,990-hectare Teide National Park is the biggest and the oldest of the four National Parks in the Canary Islands. It was founded in 1954. The 3718 meter high peak is surrounded by a 17-km-long oval, non-closing caldera, called Circo de Las Cañadas. In the southern part, you will find spectacular rock formations called Roques de García, including the most famous: Roque Cinchado. The national park is almost at least 2000 meters above sea level. As a result, temperature fluctuations are high, sunlight and winds are strong and dry. The humidity is very low in this area. The Sun shines about 3000 hours a year. The flora of the park is the most valuable. A total of 139 plant species have been recorded in the area. 50 of them live exclusively in the Canary Islands, 21 are endangered. Animals are most likely to be raised, of which more than 1,000 are known here, but since they are constantly discovering new ones, this number may rise. You can often meet reptiles and 5 species of bats are living in the region. Rabbits and mouflons have been settled in, but they are a constant danger to the flora.

In the mountains, a village called Masca is situated. In this settlement, many of the houses are built from the mountains greyish-yellow rocks. This form of construction is typical of the whole Teno region, but it remained the most to the people of posterity in Masca.

The paths snake on the hillside from village to village, until they reach Santiago del Teide.

The natural swimming pools of volcanoes on the lava stone beach invite to swim. The darkest spot in the history of this remarkable town is that in 1706 when the black volcano erupted and the huge lava flows made the city almost equal to the ground. The lava flowed into the Atlantic Ocean, then got cool in the cold water and created a new peninsula. That's Isla Baja or the “low island”. Those residents who survived the disaster reconstructed and recreated their town. The destruction was enormous, miraculously, the church and some of the old town escaped the volcanic eruption and today resembles as a living museum.
