Teide National Park's Absolute Essentials

Teide National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is defined by its volcanic landscape and Spain's highest peak, Mount Teide, reaching 3,718 meters. The area features unique geological formations like the Roques de García and the Pico Viejo crater. It serves as a major hub for international astronomy at the Teide Observatory. An aerial cableway transports visitors to the upper slopes, offering views across the Las Cañadas caldera and the Atlantic Ocean.
