Itinerary description
Long roundtrip in the Parque Rural de Anaga with some rural villages and an awesome viewpoint at Mirador Aguaide (6,87 km). In most parts easy to walk (exception: last 3 km = uphill). Several bus lines get you to Cruz del Carmen from La Laguna and back, e.g. no. 76 or 275. Hitchhiking from Cruz del Carmen back to La Laguna is also an option (and easy). There is a Restaurant at Cruz del Carmen.

The first part of the hiking was easy but then after the mirador, you are going very down and deep in the mountain, it can be a little slippery. Also the landscape is dizzying, and there is a short part of “via ferrata”, don’t go there if you have vertigo.
The last 4km are very steep to go up to Carmen del Cruz.
Difficult hiking but worth it!

Great trail. Nice pics indicating the right direction to follow. I enjoyed it! The vía ferrata mentioned above is nothing to be scared of. It’s just a cable to add safety but mostly could be done without it

Increible ruta!! .La hicimos en sentido horario y la verdad es que es una maravilla!
Destacar que hay un tramo cortado por obras y por seguridad ha sido cerrado. Hemos tenido que dar un pequeño rodeo e improvisar, ya que no hay cobertura en casi todo el recorrido.
Gracias por compartir.
