Parque Rural de Teno, Nature reserve in El Tanque, Spain.
The Teno Rural Park extends across 8,063 hectares of northwestern Tenerife, featuring steep cliffs, deep valleys, and dense laurel forests at different elevations.
The park contains preserved remnants of ancient settlements dating back centuries, when the first inhabitants established agricultural communities in its fertile valleys.
Traditional Canarian farming practices persist in villages like El Palmar and Teno Alto, where locals produce regional specialties including potatoes, cheese, and saffron.
The park maintains seasonal hours, opening from midnight until 8 PM on Mondays and until midnight on Fridays during July through September.
The Cruz de Gala peak reaches 1,354 meters, offering views of rare plant species like Euphorbia atropurpurea and endemic Laurel pigeons in their natural habitat.
