Montaña Blanca

Highlight • Summit

The summit of Montaña Blanca is relatively easy to reach and still offers you a fantastic panorama. The mighty, red-brown rocky desert spreads out below you and above you the peak of the Teide towers into the blue sky.

One of the consequences of the emergence of lava tongues or some of their explosions have been these types of rock formations that can be found in the same crater of the volcano.

October 21, 2021,Wanderung🚶‍♀️🚶‍♂️🥾 Richtung Teide zu den Montanas Blancas🗻😉
It started at low temperatures🥾🚶‍♂️🚶‍♀️. The sun 🌞 was there, but it wasn't really warm. There was also a strong wind🌬. It got a little warmer then, but unfortunately the wind🌬 didn’t let up. Would have liked to have done it tomorrow, but rain is ☔ 🌧 predicted. It was still a nice tour 🙃👍

After a day of culture at the Güímar pyramids, hiking is back on the program.
Slipped onto the Montaña Blanca to photograph the Teide eggs (with the system camera, cell phone photos only to mark the way). Great view of the caldera at the top. Windy. 6 km drive there and back easy to walk.

Shortly before reaching the mountain station, we received the encouraging news that the cable car was closed. So we had to walk the entire way back.

The weather is the same: from the bright sun on Teide to a few hundred meters lower, everything …

It wasn't even the hike itself that was spectacular today, but the weather. The Canadas were completely covered in clouds in places. According to the park ranger, this was due to the strong northwest wind blowing in from the sea. The highlights of the hike are usually the Teide Eggs, eruption lava balls, and the view from the Montana Blanca …

A superb hike on Montana Blanca! Different types of lava, lava egg... in short, a real treat for the eyes...

Be careful, don't do like me, don't walk on the side of the road because it's too dangerous...

Unfortunately, this is the first tour I've done and I don't want to recommend it. The evening before we had checked whether the cable car was running on the Teide and whether it still had capacity (all positive). Then we let ourselves be tempted by the 32 degrees hot tours of the previous days to only hike in shorts and …
