Cruz del Carmen

Cruz del Carmen stands at a high elevation point providing clear views across the valleys and mountains of northern Tenerife toward San Cristóbal de La Laguna.

The location established itself as an essential rest point for travelers crossing the Anaga Mountains during the development of mountain paths in Tenerife.

The visitor center presents exhibits about the native flora and fauna of the Anaga region, teaching visitors about local environmental conservation efforts.

The site includes parking facilities, information boards about hiking trails, and a center where visitors can obtain maps and guidance about the area.

The viewpoint serves as the starting point for several forest trails that lead through one of Europe's oldest laurel forests.
