The trails are well maintained..." - Leeway (5 stars) - "Easily the most magical spot on Tenerife... Absolutely recommended if you want to escape the crowds and reset your mind." - J W (5 stars) - "This is the most majestic place you'll ever visit. Words cannot describe the enchantment of walking along the many trails." - Holger Krückemeier (5 stars) - "Beautiful and unusual park up in the Anaga Mountains... Bring proper hiking shoes. The ground is wet and muddy most of the time." - Kenny Cleare (2 stars) - "I visited and unfortunately all the trails were closed by the parking lot... I suggest arriving before 9:30 if you want to park."
