Why living the Latitud Tenerife experience?

Because in very few places in the world you can do routes starting at sea level and reaching almost 4000 meters of altitude. Tenerife, together with Hawaii, is one of those privileged places. Latitud Tenerife suggests to walk the island from side to side, from east to west, starting at Punta de Teno, ascending near the peak of Mount Teide, for the most daring people, and ending in Anaga, in Punta del Hidalgo. Over 135 kilometers of length, 3718 slope, in 6 stages and an average of 22,5 daily kilometers.

Difficulty levels

The experience has two levels: Medium Level and Advanced Level:

  • At the medium level we cross the National Park on a route that runs over  2000-2250 m. above sea level.
  • At the advanced level you ascend almost to the top of  El Teide Volcano (3.555 m.).

The considerable differences between the two levels are exclusively  in Stages 3 and 4

*The realization of the experience in advanced level is conditioned by the existence of places in Altavista Refuge. If there were no availability on the chosen dates, we can only offer you he experience at medium level.
