La Caldera

Tenerife, 38300

The basics

Whether you visit independently or as part of a tour, La Caldera is worth it for the views alone. Hikers can choose from several trails that start in the crater, but the most rewarding is the about 3-hour loop that circles the crater, passing through the villages of Mamio and Augamansa and Los Llanos ravine. Pack a picnic to enjoy at Caldera after the hike as you take in the views.

When to get there

Tenerife’s balmy temperatures mean it’s best to time your hiking early or late afternoon, especially if you’re visiting in the hot summer months. Choose a clear day for the best views, and watch out on the trail after heavy rain.

Explore the valley of La Orotava

La Orotava Valley stretches along the north coast of Tenerife from the foot of the Teide Volcano to the crater of La Caldera and encompasses some of the island’s most striking landscapes. Lined with banana plantations and vineyards, highlights of the Orotava Valley include the Mirador del Humboldt viewpoint, which affords views across the entire valley; the historic town of Orotava; and several hiking trails, some with views of El Teide.
