Before you go: ⚠ Narrow with blind bends; the ridge often sits in dense cloud and mist — busy with hikers and cyclists at weekends, occasional rockfall closures after storms

A ribbon of tarmac along the knife-edge crest of the Anaga massif, tunnelling through primeval laurisilva cloud forest with the Atlantic glinting on both sides. UNESCO Biosphere Reserve scenery that shifts from misty fairy-tale woodland to sun-baked coastal switchbacks in a single hour.
