MTB Bike Tour Santiago Del Teide – El Chyniero
MTB Volcano Challenge
Cycling in Tenerife, a leading company in excursions and bike tours in Tenerife, offers you an unmissable tour to discover the highlights of the queen of the Canaries. We will cycle along routes that overlook the sea, leaving behind breathtaking volcanic landscapes.
Itinerary
After the pick-up from your hotel by minivan, we will go to Santiago del Teide, where you will have the opportunity to use the toilets or have a simple coffee. We will hold our briefing here, and after individually setting up and adjusting the bikes, we will proceed to the beginning of our off- road route
The first kilometers alternate between gentle climbs and descents, until you see below the villages located on the north-east of the island, such as La Orotava, Porto del La Cruz, Garachico and many others.
Cycling in the vicinity of Montana Negra, after about 15 kilometers we will arrive at the Chyniero lava cone, the scene of the last major eruption of 1909, which lasted about 10 days.
After a breaking for a photo opportunity, we will continue towards the Casa Forestal refuge, where we will stop one last time before returning to the starting point.
Difficulty
The tour is of average difficulty on mountain bikes, low for e-bikes. During the ride we will cross some short sections with quite challenging climbs–the path will have volcanic sand and packed dirt–but it will be simple even for those who do not have experience in off-road cycling, as the tour has been designed and structured specifically on wide and very safe roadways.
The Tour Guide
Accompanying you will be an experienced and professional guide, speaking English / Spanish / Italian, who will be able to give the right cycling tips to enable you to fully enjoy the landscapes you are going to discover.
