Fairy tale wooden bridge

Highlight • Bridge

Particularly worth seeing are the colorful gardens on the opposite slope of the Barranco Godinez with their pretty scarecrows - real little works of art!

The ruin Casa Hamilton - La Gordejuela was built in 1905 by the English family Hamilton, which was revolutionary at the time, because previously the precious water of the numerous springs had been allowed to flow freely into the sea. Thanks to the conveyor system, it was then possible to supply the surrounding regions with water.

View of Playa de los Roques

Highlight • Viewpoint

The bay of Playa de los Roques with a view of the raging sea and the three striking rocks.
You can descend to the bay via a narrow path, but there is no sandy beach there, only a collection of rocks. What looks breathtaking from above is even more impressive by the sea! You have a beautiful view of the three rocks and with every swell the impressive sound of the sea!

San Fernando Fort

Highlight • Historical Site

It is not really a hike here, rather a walk, but it is worth it only because of the view and the beautiful photo opportunity.

View of Playa de Castro

Highlight • Viewpoint

The hacienda of the Portuguese Castro family is embedded in the Rambla de Castro nature reserve. The estate dates from the 17th century and has served as a backdrop for films and theater productions in recent years. After the conquest of Tenerife by Alonso de Lugo, the land was allocated to the Castros, who then became large landowners. They first grew sugar cane on their land, and later also wine, which came from the small natural harbors below the hacienda to England by boat.

San Pedro Viewpoint

Highlight • Viewpoint

The viewing platform offers us a great panoramic view of the wildly romantic north coast of Tenerife. A display board provides some interesting details about our location and the view. Deep below us is the magnificent palm grove with the Castro family manor.

November 11, 2023,Rambla de Castro – Playa de los Roques y Mirador de San Pedro

It was a very nice route to get used to.
Good path with a few ups and downs, it's not a comfortable Sunday walk.
With the 3 roques in the water you can continue walking. There is an official route over the mountain (housing estate). The lower path along the stone beach. Important: BE AWARE OF THE TIDES!!!!
Or you …

March 10, 2025,TF 25-04 schöne Küstenwanderung von Rambla de Castro zum Aussichtspunkt San Pedro und zurück

A nature reserve with many palm trees and spectacular views. A highlight is Tenerife's first steam engine – built in 1903 in difficult terrain – no longer in operation and already quite dilapidated.

January 29, 2025,Küstenwanderung bei Puerto de la Cruz 🌴🌤️

Today @Norbert took us on a spectacular coastal hike. We walked up and down the steep coast near Puerto de la Cruz above the mighty surf. It's unbelievable how big houseplants like ficus and dragon trees grow here... and I didn't know that banana plants were so huge. 😲

April 14, 2025,🇪🇸 La Rambla de Castro

A wonderful trail along the north coast. It starts at a parking lot that is unfortunately very busy, especially since the restaurant there serves very good food. Unfortunately, I only have a few pictures because my battery died. The trail begins at the top with a view and then goes through a kind of botanical garden with a variety of …

Morning stroll along the coast. The highlight is definitely the green oasis near San Vicente – immerse yourself in a sea of palm trees.

March 31, 2025,🇪🇸 Wanderung Los Realejos zum Vista Roques

A hike we've done on every visit to Tenerife so far. It's not particularly long, but there are many great views of the coast and plenty of other things to explore. Once you're finished, you can simply drive (or walk) down the road from the starting point to cool off, ending up at Playa del Soccoro.
