Description A Mount Teide Tour with cable car that has everything you need On this organised Mount Teide Tour with cable car return tickets with a digital audio guide of Mount Teide included in your booking free of change , you’ll discover Teide National Park : the most visited national park in Europe. You’ll also be visiting the park in a sustainable way. From the comfort of our bus and in the company of an official guide , you will discover scenery that will leave you wide-eyed with wonder as you ascend towards the peak. Because Tenerife is an enormous mountain in the middle of the ocean.
Its roads climb to reach the heart of the island: Mount Teide. Along the way, you will pass through different bioclimatic levels. As you leave the coast, made barren by endless sunshine, the proximity of the sea and the lack of rain, you will enter the mid-altitude zone . This contains the finest agricultural land, chosen by the European settlers as the site for Tenerife’s historic towns.
A series of towns is strung like a necklace at a mid altitude of between 400 and 500 metres above sea level: Arona, La Orotava, Santiago del Teide… All still conserve a historical legacy worth discovering. If your Teide excursion with a cable car ticket included takes you up the north side, the likelihood is that from 600 metres above sea level you will be engulfed by dense fog. You will be in the belt below the area of direct impact of the moist trade winds that blow in from the north-east, forming a sea of cloud . Here, laurel woods clothe the scenery in a rich green colour, and you will feel a coolness that will make you reach for your coat.
Soon, at an altitude of 1,000 metres, the laurel woods give way to dense, humid pine forests, that extend up to 2,000 metres. But if your ascent takes you up the south side, where the sea of cloud struggles to form, you’ll be in the pine forest from an altitude of 600 metres. When you reach the high mountain area, you will see the sea of cloud at your feet, and you will feel as if you are flying above it. The flora of Las Cañadas comprises broom, laburnum and a vast array of other plants, most of them endemic to these peaks.
Here, the extreme climate, with significant fluctuations between summer and winter, and even between day and night, determines the pattern of life. Scrub clothes the slopes of the Las Cañadas cirque, and those of Mount Teide volcano itself. But as you make your way towards the peak, it gradually disappears... Only the beautiful Teide violet survives at 3,000 metres on the volcano.
And throughout your trip to Mount Teide, you will see the volcanoes that formed Tenerife, some as old as the island itself, and others more recent. Furthermore, since cable car tickets to go up Mount Teide are already included, you don’t have to worry about missing the chance to book your seat. We have thought of everything so that you can enjoy your Teide Tour without worrying about a thing! Enjoy spectacular views of Tenerife and some of the neighbouring islands on this excursion to ascend Mount Teide Our Teide Tour excursion includes tickets for the ascent and descent by cable car and, in addition, the Teide Legend digital audio guide (which features information about the volcano’s 3 open trails) to take you up to an altitude of 3,555 metres so that you can enjoy stunning views of Tenerife and some of the neighbouring islands, whilst at the same time seeing one of the world’s most extraordinary volcanic landscapes. On Las Cañadas, you will see different types of lava and volcanic rock formations, beginning with Mount Teide itself, a stratovolcano of the Vesuvian type .
Mount Teide was formed gradually, as eruption followed eruption. Each eruption added another level to the volcanic edifice. Mount Teide began as a small volcanic cone at the base of Las Cañadas 150,000 years ago, and reached a height of 3,718 metres 1,000 years ago, when its most recent eruptions occurred; these formed the current peak and the streams of black lava that flow down its slopes. Now Mount Teide is the highest peak in the Atlantic region, the highest peak in Spain, and the third highest volcano on Earth measured from the sea bed, from where it reaches a height of 7,500 metres.
When you reach the cable car upper station, you can choose which views you’d like to enjoy and which audio guide tracks to listen to: Admire Siete Cañadas and the Ucanca valley from La Rambleta viewpoint Follow the La Fortaleza trail and enjoy spectacular views of northern Tenerife Choose the Pico Viejo viewpoint trail and admire views of southern Tenerife with the impressive 800-m-diameter Pico Viejo crater at your feet and, if the weather permits, the islands of La Gomera, El Hierro and La Palma on the horizon.

You will learn about Mount Teide’s last major eruption (around 1,000 years ago) which the indigenous Guanches probably interpreted as a fight between mythological deities —an explanation far removed from that which science now attributes to volcanic eruptions. The characters of the legend of Guayota, both gods and humans, will show you their vision of the stages of the eruption that took place back then, and which formed the pylon at the summit of Mount Teide, known locally as “el tapón del Teide” [the Teide cap]. A magical story in which good and evil join in an epic battle. Along with the legend, you will be shown reliable data to illustrate the scientific interpretation of the eruption.
Although the two perspectives may seem diametrically opposed, they are in fact closely connected. In addition, you can have a great time at our Visitors’ Centre, where you can find brilliant mementoes of your visit to the legend of the Teide National Park at our official souvenir shop . And you can relax and enjoy a culinary experience with panoramic views of the National Park in Spain’s highest restaurant and snack bar , whose badge of identity is the distinctly Canary Island character of its food and drink.
