The landscape here is breathtaking, the peaks of the Teno mountains, deep gorges with a lush green flora 🥰, and Masca in the middle.

Masca is a mountain village in a volcanic crater at 650 msnm in the Teno Mountains in the northwest of the Canary Island of Tenerife with 86 inhabitants. The townscape is characterized by terraced fields on the slope of the crater.

Masca mountain village

Highlight • Settlement

Beautiful hiking trails, some of which are very difficult. We started our circular hike in Masca. Masca itself is overrun with tourists, but otherwise very beautiful. We took a quiet break at Hilda's.

Masca Village

Highlight • Settlement

To get to Masca, you first have to climb a good 700 meters from the sea, because the place is located in the Teno mountains. In the meantime, this can be done quite comfortably on a narrow and winding mountain road that is ideal for racing cyclists. The location of the place is quite spectacular - the houses are on the inner slopes of a volcanic crater. The construction of the houses is probably unique - the rooms of the houses are connected via external stairs. A tour of the town leaves beautiful, lasting impressions. And for the physical well-being is also well taken care of - some restaurants are waiting here with their typical specialties.

View of the Masca Gorge

Highlight • Gorge

The village of Masca is reached via a narrow and winding road. There are not many PPs here, but there are many who want to enjoy a great view or hike in the gorge. It's not that easy to get into the gorge, pre-registration via the Internet is necessary.
