Level 3 · Demanding

Good fitness and a long day. There is a shorter option with the cable car for the first part.

The day

Teide, 3718 m. The highest point in Spain, on foot, above the clouds. You can walk the whole mountain from Montaña Blanca or ride the cable car up and climb only the final cone, the part that needs a permit.

The permit for the summit is limited and books out weeks ahead. Tell us your dates early and we take care of it, together with the cable car tickets if you want them.

How the day runs

Early · Meeting point

The start time depends on the route and the permit slot.

Morning · The climb

A slow, steady pace. Altitude is the hard part, not the path.

Midday · The summit

The crater, the smell of sulphur and the shadow of the mountain on the sea of clouds.

Afternoon · Down

On foot or by cable car, as planned.

Included

Licensed mountain guide

Summit permit

Activity insurance

Photos from the day

Bring

Boots, warm layers, hat and gloves: it can be below zero at the top

At least 2 l of water and food

Sun cream and sunglasses

Good to know

Is the cable car included?

No. Tickets are bought separately and we help you book the right slot.

What if the summit is closed by wind or ice?

It happens in winter. We move the day or walk another high route in the park.

Will the altitude affect me?

Most people feel it a little. We walk slowly, drink a lot and turn round if someone feels unwell.
