TAMADABA Artenara

Eight kilometers from Artenara you will find the island's largest forest of Canary pines, much loved by walkers and picnickers, centred on the Pico de Tamadaba at 1,444m. There is a forestry station on the circular road leading round the mountain and an ICONA (national environmental agency) picnic site on the edge of the woods. There are splendid views from the summit down to the coast and, on a clear day, to Mount Teide on Tenerife.
