Wind and volcanic dust push at the buggy as it arcs onto a high, open slope above the lunar plains of Teide National Park. Engines rumble; scrubby pines thin and rock replaces soil as riders lean into corners and views unclench—an abrupt panorama of calderas, distant sea, and the cone of El Teide itself.
