Reise-Taschenbuch Teneriffa

About the Book

Welcome to the Island of Winter Refugees! Are you also seeking sun and sea, but without the sardine can feeling? Then head to remote lava beaches and seawater pools. Water sports? Of course, everything is available, including a dive down to the excellent island wine. The favorite spots of author Dieter Schulze and 25 detailed tours invite you to explore. If you want to reach new heights, climb the Pico del Teide. You can only get closer to the sky at the star observatory. Around Father Teide, a bizarre volcanic crater landscape exudes a science fiction flair. More wonders await in one of the longest lava caves in the world. Oases spring up in the rugged Teno Mountains and the Barranco del Infierno. It gets lush in the fairytale-like laurel forests of the Anaga Mountains and in the Valle de Orotava, which Humboldt already praised.

Had enough nature? Then let yourself be enchanted by Europe’s largest doll museum. Stroll through quirky art landscape parks or Santa Cruz’s excellent art exhibitions. Marvel at street art in Puerto de la Cruz. Or immerse yourself in the world of the indigenous people at the Pyramids of Guímar. La Laguna, Orotava, and Garachico also entice with time travel experiences. Heartfelt encounters with the Tinerfeños are almost everywhere for free.
