Hiking in Tenerife
Northern Tenerife offers varied landscapes and excellent hiking conditions all year round. Many routes start directly at the OCÉANO and lead into the mountain scenery of the UNESCO Anaga Biosphere Reserve with its laurel forests. Other hiking routes cross the volcanic landscape surrounding Mount Teide.

Our hiking guide
Born in Tenerife, Norberto Crespo has been working as a qualified hiking guide in the Canary Islands for more than 15 years. He will accompany you to some of the most beautiful places on his home island and share his knowledge of the landscape and local life.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Guided hikes
Our guided hikes take place once a week, with a different route each time. Further information about the planned route is available from the OCÉANO team during your stay.
Please register at the hotel no later than 24 hours before the hike. The hikes take place with a minimum of 4 participants, and the price depends on the chosen route. To ensure your hike is enjoyable and safe, please bring the following: sturdy footwear, preferably hiking boots, a waterproof jacket, a rucksack and sun protection. A reasonable level of fitness and stamina, as well as sure-footedness, is required for our hikes.
ANAGA MOUNTAINS
Hiking through Anaga’s laurel forests
The UNESCO Anaga Biosphere Reserve begins just a few hundred metres from the OCÉANO. Ancient laurel forests have survived here, with numerous ferns and lichens flourishing beneath the canopy. When the mist, known locally as “bruma”, drifts through the trees, the forest takes on its distinctive, mystical character. One of the most beautiful hikes through this landscape leads from Punta del Hidalgo to Cruz del Carmen – setting out directly from the hotel.



TEIDE NATIONAL PARK
On Spain’s highest mountain
Teide National Park is one of Tenerife’s most impressive hiking areas and has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2007. Around the 3,718-metre-high volcano, the vast crater landscape feels like another planet. Volcanic cones, solidified lava flows and caves shape the scenery. It is also home to animal and plant species found nowhere else. Hiking in Tenerife can be this spectacular!
