Mount Teide
Posted in: Activities Curiosities Hiking Localities Mountains Pretty Views Tourist Attractions
Tenerife is not just an excellent holiday destination for those looking for winter sun, good value for money, and sizzling hot summers. It is more than just a wonderful sun holiday location that attracts flocks of tourist crowds to its well-established resorts each year for good reason, though it certainly is that. In addition to all of this, Tenerife is also an incredible volcanic island with a unique and strikingly beautiful landscape. If you're interested in the great outdoors, exploring, and stunning views, then a villa in Tenerife is a brilliant idea as it boasts lots of places and attractions where adventure and thrills are the order of the day.

Made up of dramatic desert plains punctuated by colourful reptiles and and tough bright blooms that fight to appear between craggy rocks, the scenery of much of the island of Tenerife is undoubtedly unforgettable, stark, and lovely. This amazing landscape is best showcased and most apparent in the Teide National Park, which is also home to Mount Teide, the highest point in Spain and one of the highest volcanoes in the world. Still active (it has not erupted since 1909, though it has a history of destructive eruptions), Mount Teide is a UNESCO awarded World Heritage Site and the most visited natural wonder of Spain. Located in the most visited national park in Spain and Europe and the eighth most visited in the world, it attracts some 3 million visitors yearly. In fact, the number of visitors only increases year by year. If you have found a vacation rental in Tenerife, you should make sure to set aside some time to visit it yourself!
