Based on Puerto de la Cruz, this book features car tours all over the island and is the best choice for those staying in the north. Walks cover the Orotava Valley, Las Cañadas, the Teno and Anaga peninsulas. (For walks in the south of Tenerife, see Landscapes of Southern Tenerife and La Gomera.)

This was the first walking guide for Tenerife, but in recent years the island has become the most popular of all the Canaries amongst walkers. And for good reason. Tenerife has something for everyone country lanes for strolling, nature trails for hiking, and mountains to be scaled ­ including El Teide, the highest in all Spain. The profusion of wild plants and flowers makes the island a botanical treasure.

"The best guidebook is Landscapes of Tenerife, which shows another face of the island for walkers and picnickers, as well as those who tour by car." (Sunday Times)

"Landscapes of Tenerife and Landscapes of Southern Tenerife and La Gomera are really essential guidebooks." (The Great Outdoors)

Best months for walking: October to June.

Where to Stay: if you are taking a package tour, aim to stay in Puerto de la Cruz: good bus services bring most of the walks within easy reach. If you are not tied to specific accommodation, you may like to spend a couple of days at the peaceful Parador de las Canadas or you could use hotels in La Laguna or Santa Cruz for ease of access to the superb walking in the Anaga peninsula.
