A cool January sun lifts through low clouds as you step off the minibus into a valley painted with pale pink and white — almond trees pushing buds out of short, volcanic soil. The trail climbs through farmland terraces and along old farm tracks, each bend giving a wider view: the black scars of hardened lava below the Chinyero vent, the serrated spine of Tenerife’s peaks and the blue Atlantic far beneath.
moderate.
4 hours.
Participants should have moderate fitness: comfortable walking 10–12 km with short ascents and uneven footing.
Blossom season typically begins in early January and runs through mid-February, with peak displays often in late January depending on winter weather.
Yes — the tour provides air-conditioned vehicle transport from pickup points to the high valley start and return at the end of the walk.
Infants can travel on the vehicle and may be carried for the walk; some sections are stroller-accessible but much of the route has uneven ground, so it’s best for older children who can walk.
Moderate fitness is required: expect rolling terrain and a 350 m ascent; regular walkers and those used to multi-kilometre hikes will be comfortable.
The high valley has long supported small-scale agriculture; the 1909 Chinyero eruption is the last notable volcanic event on Tenerife’s western flank and shaped many walking routes.
Stick to established paths and don’t pick blossoms — the almond groves are working agricultural land and fragile early-season habitats should be respected.
