Visit the highest peak in Spain and admire the volcano rising to 3718 metres with this Teide Cable Car + Hike Experience. You'll enjoy incredible views and an unforgettable hiking route.

Teide Cable Car + Hike Experience

After being picked up by bus at the scheduled time from designated meeting points, we will head to Teide National Park for the cable car ride.

The cable car journey will last approximately 10 minutes, ascending over 1000 metres to the top station at 3555 metres above sea level.

Participants will then hike along the Telesforo Bravo route to the peak of the volcano. This requires a special permit, which will be managed for you as part of the tour. The hike will cover more than half a kilometre, and the environment will feature distinct sulphur smells and unique rock colors. After 40 minutes of walking, you will reach the summit if the weather is clear, with views of La Gomera, El Hierro, La Palma, and Gran Canaria.

We will then return to the cable car for our descent, concluding the tour after approximately 6 hours back at the original departure points.

Ascent to the Peak

Reservation confirmation is not immediate because a special permit is required from the national park to access the summit of Mount Teide. Once your reservation is received, we will process this permit. If you do not receive confirmation within 72 hours, you can inquire about its status.

Important Info

People with cardiovascular issues, pregnant women, and those with reduced mobility are not permitted on the cable car. Additionally, safety regulations require that visitors wear sports or hiking footwear; sandals or smooth-soled shoes are prohibited.

Schedules and Pickup Points

Pickup times are generally between 6:55 and 9:25 am. We will contact you before the excursion with the exact time, which may vary. Please indicate a pickup point from the options available in northern Tenerife when making your reservation.
