The hike by itself is extremely photogenic with amazing panoramic views and we start hike right above the Santiago del Teide town by Puerto de Erjos.

At the beginning of the Masca Hiking Tour with Boat Trip we walk up through the bright Canary pine forest along the trail going up to the saddle between big and small peaks of Mt. Gala. For stronger hikers there'll be possibility to hike the smaller peak Mount Gala to do amazing photos from the top. That will open you an unbelievable panoramic landscape over the whole Teno Mountains and, depend on the weather conditions and visibility, you maybe also will see views on the other Canary Islands: La Gomera and La Palma or even westernmost El Hierro.

Then we start descend through the beautiful valley and you will see our final hike destination – pirate Masca village. As well you will notice how dramatically vegetation is changed. That's because we've crossed border of 2 totally different climate zones and pine forest converted into the mix of green bush cactuses. Masca village is a kind of lost town in the past - it was founded in unaccessible area by pirates so we will do as pirates were doing - Masca Hiking Tour with Boat Trip leads you down to Masca along an wild goat track.
