What To Expect
We start with a climb to the top of Samara Volcano (1937m), from where we have spectacular panoramic views of several neighbouring volcanic cones, the island of La Gomera and the Teno Mountains. We walk through a beautiful Canary pine forest, which has colonised a volcanic landscape of pyroclasts from recent eruptions. The walk continues on a path over black ash, between green pines and a blue sky, where the arrival of the mystic sea of clouds may surprise us. We continue our route up the slopes of the La Botija Volcano until we reach a viewpoint where we can admire the fantastic natural scenery offered by the Montaña Reventada (2230m), Pico Viejo (3135m) and Teide (3715m) volcanoes. In this surreal landscape you will feel like you are on another planet. The vegetation is rich in brooms, laburnums and rose bushes, in addition to the pines. As for the fauna, it is possible to observe several endemic birds that inhabit these places where the pine forest meets the broom. This natural area was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 2007 and has been the setting for famous science fiction films.
Meeting Point: Viewpoint Mirador de Samara (on the TF-38 highway) at 9:30 a.m.
