Parador de Las Cañadas del Teide, Mountain hotel in Teide National Park, Spain
Parador de Las Cañadas del Teide is a mountain hotel situated in Teide National Park at 2,000 meters elevation. The building combines stone walls with wooden elements and contains 91 rooms, including accessible accommodations and ample parking.
The hotel was established in the early 1970s as part of Spain's state-run Parador network to offer lodging within national park boundaries. The facility reflects a government initiative to encourage tourism in protected natural areas.
The restaurant serves Canarian food made with local ingredients and regional specialties. Guests experience island eating traditions through dishes prepared with produce grown in the volcanic landscape.
The hotel is about one hour from Tenerife South Airport by car, making it easy to reach by vehicle. Visitors should be aware that the high elevation and mountain climate can make physical activities more demanding.
