I haven't been here for a while, because for the past few months, one place has been completely absorbing my attention. One that's hard to describe, yet so easy to love. It wasn’t any grand plan, rather a combination of circumstances and a bit of intuition that eventually led us to northern Tenerife – or more precisely, to its northwest 🙂 Where the island breathes more peacefully. For several months now, I have been renovating a house in Buenavista del Norte and learning to live more slowly: closer to nature, closer to the ocean, and more in tune with the rhythm of local life than the calendar. How it all started – our journey to the north of Tenerife When we moved to Tenerife, for the first six months we lived in the north, in Icod de los Vinos , on the outskirts of a town located at an altitude of about 235–300 m above sea level. We booked the place remotely and somewhat by accident – it was difficult to find a pet-friendly apartment. The house itself turned out to be very nice, and the apartment had amazing views from both sides. The decor left a lot to be desired, but at the time, we were able to overlook that. It wasn't the fulfillment of a Canarian dream, however – in winter, the cold in the uninsulated apartment was unbearable. Despite this, the nature of northern Tenerife captivated me from the very beginning. The greenery, the scent of the air, the blue ocean, and the majestic slopes of Mount Teide – all of this made it difficult for me to leave this part of the island when we moved south. Our first months in the North of Tenerife Three years in the south of Tenerife – experience and contrast We spent the next three years in San Isidro – a comfortable, practical, but uncharming town in the south of the island. It's a good place to live: close to the airport, shops, and a gym. But I missed the cleanliness, greenery, and tranquility that I so much enjoy in the north. In the south, we also quickly became familiar with the Kalima phenomenon – a dry, hot wind from the Sahara that carries sand and dust suspended in the air. During the Kalima, the air becomes heavier, visibility drops, and the sky takes on shades of yellow and orange. This phenomenon is typical of the Canary Islands, but in northern Tenerife, it is felt much milder – the air is fresher, and the sky returns to "normal" more quickly. Finding our dream place to live became our main focus—sometimes exciting, sometimes exhausting. We considered everything: an apartment in the south or a house in the mountains, closer to the beach or the city, in Santa Cruz or closer to nature. Budget, location, atmosphere – every “pro” had its “but”. Las Eras – noon without filters and the first lesson in renovation In the meantime, we bought a small rental apartment in Las Eras , a quiet, local village in southeast Tenerife. We wanted to see what life was like in the less touristy south, closer to the "real," everyday island. Las Eras was different: peaceful, full of islanders, fishermen, families, people who truly live there. We were convinced that the authentic Tenerife , without resorts and hotel zones, was closer to us – and our next steps slowly began to form in our minds. Las Eras also taught us patience – because it was there that we learned what renovation in Tenerife really means. The first jobs, surprises, "local deadlines," and a pace that has its own rhythm. This experience later proved very useful during the renovation in Buenavista – we already knew that nothing could be rushed on this island. You simply had to listen to it. Returning to the North – a decision of heart and reason At some point we sat down and decided what was really important to us: relatively flat (which is not easy in Tenerife...), because we both like sports and walking locally, away from tourists, close to nature and sports center , good air , which is increasingly lacking in the south due to the increasingly frequent occurrence of the Kalima. Although it occurs throughout the island, it is felt much less in northern Tenerife. Paradoxically, proximity to the ocean is no longer crucial – Las Eras showed us that living right by the water also has its drawbacks, such as constant moisture in the walls and air. And then the topic of northern Tenerife came back. Because if you're looking for greenery, space, and peace, the north always appears on the list. The first, longer meeting with Buenavista del Norte We looked at a lot of properties until one day my husband convinced me to go to Buenavista del Norte , a town I'd only briefly visited. I wasn't convinced. After my experience in Icod, I thought the north was too difficult to live in. However, I agreed – out of curiosity and with the thought that “all north and north are different” . The first house we saw was beyond our budget. However, the owner, with typical Canarian hospitality, showed us around and showed us the amazing community gym right on the ocean , with views of the waves, cliffs, and sunset. At that moment we realized that this could be "it." Buenavista won me over with its peace, greenery and this strange energy of a place that seems to be at the end of the road – and at the same time very much in the middle of nature. The microclimate of Buenavista del Norte is unique Buenavista del Norte has a typical microclimate of northwestern Tenerife – mild, wetter and definitely greener than the south of the island. Summer here starts later (in practice, often from September to November, though it can sometimes last longer) and is pleasant, with temperatures usually around 25–28°C, without oppressive heat. In winter, temperatures rarely drop below 18°C. Clouds and short rains appear more frequently, which is why the area is so lush and green. Thanks to the Teno Mountains and the circulation of sea air, the sun shines here very often, and the rains are more fleeting than long-lasting. The town is surrounded by the ocean and mountains of the Teno Rural Park, creating a natural balance between fresh sea air and a mountain microclimate – perfect for people who value nature, peace and cleaner air than in the drier southern part. Fun fact A little interesting fact: Buenavista del Norte , one of the oldest towns in Tenerife, really has an origin as beautiful as its name. “Buena vista” simply means “beautiful view.” When the first settlers arrived here over five hundred years ago, they were captivated by the Teno Cliffs, the open views of the ocean, the green valleys, and Mount Teide in the background. The classic exclamation is said to have been , "¡Qué buena vista!" – what a beautiful view! And so the name has stuck to this day. The second part of the name – del Norte – was added later to distinguish the town from other names for "Buenavista" in the Canary Islands or Andalusia and to emphasize its location at the northern tip of Tenerife . The town became formally known as Buenavista del Norte in 16th-century documents. The house that found us alone From that moment on, we began our detailed search for a house in the Buenavista area. We had several options listed, but we decided to look at one – one that looked rather average in the photos. Just another Canarian house in need of renovation. By sheer coincidence (or perhaps something more), we arrived in town, stepped onto the terrace, and gazed out over Punta de Teno, the ocean, and the golf course . The decision was made in a matter of seconds. The owner had such a warm and calm demeanor, and the house had such a positive energy, that we immediately knew this was it! We decided to sign the reservation contract that same day. Thus began a new history for the old house. Casa Palmera Verde was born. – our little world in the northwest of Tenerife. Did I have any doubts? Of course. I wondered if I, accustomed to the pace of a big city, would cope in a small, close-knit community. That I would miss the city, the dynamism, the anonymity. But it only took a few days after moving in to understand that everything here had a different rhythm and meaning. That the silence could be full of life, and the people – truly present. That life in the north of Tenerife has a peace I've long been searching for. Seriously. North Tenerife – a different climate, a different pace, a different happiness Northern Tenerife has its own rhythm. The weather can change several times a day, but sun and rain create a natural balance. Greenery grows effortlessly, the air is fresher, and the sky boasts dozens of shades. There is a lot of talk about the "Tenerife north-south" climate, but to understand it you simply have to experience it . The North isn't "cold"—it's freshness . It's a balance between sun and shade, between movement and stillness. I feel like Tenerife's climate can't be described simply. Its variability in such a small area simply has to be experienced. Only then do your mind and body begin to understand how different microclimates can coexist here and how naturally the weather changes depending on where you are on the island. Buenavista del Norte is also a slightly different story. For me, it is not just the "north of Tenerife", but the northwest and part of the so-called Isla Baja (A topic for a separate post). The climate here is also unique – warmer because it's closer to the ocean and the Teno Massif, which strongly influences clouds and winds. The sun shines frequently, the wind is usually moderate, and the clouds create a spectacle that never gets old. This is a truly different, unique and very authentic Tenerife. Today Today we're renovating Casa Palmera Verde , and I truly feel like I've found my place. I'm working, creating, and learning the rhythms of the island. Sometimes I get my hands dirty with paint, finishing the house, and paying attention to the details to preserve the soul of a Canarian home while adding a little bit of our own. We are also preparing a small apartment for people who would one day like to see this part of northern Tenerife through the eyes of its inhabitants. And sometimes I just sit on the terrace and look at the mountains, the sun, and the ocean. And I think to myself that every day here really has meaning.

From January 1, 2026, the rules for climbing the Teide volcano – the highest point in Spain, located at 3,718 m above sea level – will change. The changes only affect the final section leading to the crater : routes 7 (Montaña Blanca → La Rambleta) and 10 (Telesforo Bravo), which previously required a free permit. Entry to Teide National Park remains completely free. New fee system 🏝️ Tenerife residents and children under 14 – free admission 🌋 Residents of the other Canary Islands – from 3 to 6 euros (depending on the day of the week) ✈️ Tourists from outside the archipelago – from 10 to 25 euros (depending on the route and day of entry) 🧭 Licensed mountain guides – exempt from fees As explained by Rosa Dávila , President of the Tenerife Island Council, the system aims to limit excessive tourism and protect the volcano's fragile ecosystem. Climbing Teide - reservations and limits 300 people per day will be able to reach the summit, divided into three groups of 100 people each. Everyone must register before accessing the trails and climbing the volcano. Registration is available through the Tenerife ON app. To access your chosen routes, you must print or save an electronic version of the document you received to present it at the boarding gate. You must also bring an ID document confirming your details. Income and conservation efforts The new system is expected to generate approximately €650,000 annually , all of which will be dedicated to the maintenance and protection of Teide National Park. The plan also includes strengthening the park's staff: 8 new guards with control powers 8 technical specialists – forestry and agricultural engineers Why were the changes made? Climbing Teide is one of the biggest attractions on the island... Teide is visited by over 5 million people annually , 89% of whom are tourists. By comparison, in 2020, the number of visitors was 3.5 million. With such heavy traffic, protecting the summit became a necessity. The new regulations are intended not only to limit the number of visitors, but also to promote conscious and sustainable sightseeing – with respect for nature and the pace of the island itself. The symbol of Tenerife Teide isn't just a point on the map, but a part of the identity of its inhabitants. For many of us, it's a place that reminds us of the power of nature and the island's tranquility. The changes to the access system may seem like a minor formality, but they're a step towards protecting this unique landscape – ensuring that we can still gaze out at the ocean from a Tenerife rooftop and feel that the world is truly vast. 🌋💛

Tenerife, the largest of the Canary Islands, has long attracted cyclists with its perpetual sunshine and varied terrain. It offers ideal conditions for year-round riding, making it a popular destination for both professionals and amateurs. Among the many challenges the island poses, one of the most iconic is climbing the majestic Teide volcano. This impressive mountain, the highest peak in Spain, attracts cyclists from all over Europe to tackle its slopes. I will, of course, devote a separate post to it. However, on this epic route, about halfway to the summit, lies the charming town of Vilaflor. Situated at around 1,424 metres above sea level, Vilaflor is not only the highest town in Spain, but also a natural and extremely welcoming stopover for cyclists on their way to Teide. Where does this charming name come from? According to legend, the name Vilaflor comes from the cry of a Spanish conquistador who, upon seeing a beautiful Guanche woman, exclaimed: " ¡Vi la flor de Chasna! " (I have seen the flower of Chasna!). Previously, Vilaflor was known as Chasna, which was the capital of the vast Abona region. The modern name Vilaflor means "Village of Flowers" in Spanish. Road to Vilaflor A cycling adventure in Tenerif e most often begins on the southern coast of the island, in popular resorts such as el Medano or Los Cristianos . The first kilometers lead inland, gradually moving away from the blue ocean. The landscape is initially diverse - you can admire vast vineyards picturesquely climbing the slopes of the hills. With each meter up, the Canary pines characteristic of Tenerife begin to dominate the surroundings, creating pleasant shade and introducing a mountain climate.    The climb to Vilaflor is gradual but relentless. There is no hiding the fact that if you are not in good enough shape, the climb will not be a pleasure. The incline is very demanding from the start, and every pedal turn requires effort. The average gradient is 5.5-6.1%, but the highest elevations, depending on the route, are 11% or even 20.5%.* However, the satisfaction of the meters of altitude covered and the vast panoramas that begin to reveal themselves compensate for the hardships of the climb. *If you want to experience this elevation gain, here’s where you’ll find this segment: Los Cristianos → Vilaflor (TF-51) (21.1 km, 1,277 m elevation gain), the 20.5% jump occurs on the third bend (~9 km climb), just after passing through the small village of La Escalona and starting the final sections to Vilaflor. This is a very short section — only about 100 m long — but it’s the steepest on the entire route. It’s very common to meet other cyclists also heading in the same direction, which creates a sense of community and motivation. Unless you go in the afternoon, by then the cyclists are usually already heading downhill. If cycling in Tenerife is new to you, read my post below. There are many different routes and types of towers to choose from. Today I will suggest options for getting to Vilaflor by road bike. This is the most popular type of bike chosen for conquering these climbs. I recommend choosing a road bike with a good range of gears to make it easier to conquer the steep climbs. 🚴🏻 Routes from the south to Vilaflor 1.

La Laguna (km 15) – El Obispado bar; Mirador Mataznos (km 32) What else is worth knowing? Equipment : Make sure your bike is in good working order. Disc brakes are recommended, as they are more suitable for long descents. Equipment : Always wear a helmet! (This is mandatory on the islands). Bring sunglasses. It is a good idea to have front and rear lights. Hydration and nutrition : Make sure you have enough water and energy snacks before starting the ascent. Food options are limited in the higher elevations of the island, and there are no food options or shops from the ascent from Chío to Vilaflor. Weather and clothing : Weather conditions can change quickly at higher altitudes. I recommend taking appropriate clothing to protect against wind and cold. Even if it is warm on the coast, temperatures can drop significantly higher in the mountains. It is worth bringing layers of clothing, including a windbreaker, a vest and, depending on the season, a warmer sweatshirt. Don't forget your UV cream - the sun is very intense at this altitude. Suggestions for rest areas : at every major intermediate point (town, mirador, café) you will find basic supplies: water, snacks, toilets. When planning your route, it is worth checking the opening hours of local bars in advance. Route planning: before setting off, plan it carefully, taking into account rest areas and possible service points. Inform someone about your planned route and estimated return time. Ride responsibly : obey road traffic regulations, respect nature (don't throw away paper, don't litter), other cyclists and drivers. Take on challenges, but listen to your body! A bike trip to Vilaflor is not only a beautiful adventure, but also a demanding challenge - almost extreme. Steep climbs, significant elevation gain, long descents and changing weather conditions can significantly affect the comfort of the ride and your fitness. It is a completely different effort than riding on flat terrain, even if you cover a greater number of kilometers. When planning a route to this picturesque town, take all these factors into account and adjust the pace to your abilities. IMPORTANT In Tenerife, the following are mandatory: 🚲 wearing a helmet 🚲 having bicycle lights 🚲 respecting traffic regulations It is forbidden to: 🚲 wearing headphones 🚲 using a mobile phone Driving culture and road safety Tenerife is a popular destination for cyclists, both amateur and professional. Drivers on the island are generally polite and accustomed to cyclists on the roads. They keep a safe distance when overtaking and are aware of the specifics of cycling in mountainous terrain. However, cycling infrastructure in Tenerife is limited. Cycle paths are rare (non-existent on mountain routes) and cyclists often share the road with other vehicles. As a result, it is important to exercise caution, especially on busier sections of road. ⚠️ Potential hazards and precautions Although cycling in Tenerife is generally safe, there are some risks to be aware of: Traffic : in the south of the island, especially around popular resorts, traffic can be heavy. It is advisable to avoid riding during rush hour. Weather conditions: in the higher parts of the island, such as around Vilaflor, the weather can be changeable. There can be strong winds (around El Medano), sudden changes in temperature and fog that reduce visibility. Road conditions : some roads can be in poor condition, with holes and loose gravel. It is advisable to be careful, especially when going downhill. Photo fun fact: The road leading to Vilaflor offers not only picturesque views, but also excellent places for photo sessions. While we focus mainly on riding during our rides, it was on this route that MAKYO did a photoshoot for our cycling clothing brand TROFEO. The results of this session can be seen here and elsewhere on our blog. Although we no longer manufacture clothing, we still ride with passion in our kits, enjoying cycling in Tenerife. If you feel like it, we invite you to visit our Instagram profile. Vilaflor – yes, you are in the right place! I always welcome the entrance to Vilaflor with relief and satisfaction. The town, situated at the highest point, exudes a peaceful atmosphere. You can immediately see that Vilaflor is a place friendly to cyclists. You can often see bicycles parked in front of local cafés and restaurants, and the atmosphere inside is full of understanding for the needs of cyclists. Cafes in Vilaflor are aware of the specifics of cycling and adapt their service to guests arriving on two wheels. The premises offer a convenient place to leave bikes and a quick service of drinks, which is crucial after a demanding climb. Almost every local café allows you to refill your bottles with free water, and the staff is sensitive to the need for quick service for tired cyclists. In the center of the town there are at least three catering points with plenty of seating and clean toilets, which significantly increases the comfort of cycling breaks, especially if you are riding in a large group. Vilaflor is one of the best places for a short coffee break during a full-day road trip in Tenerife. Thanks to this, whether you are an amateur or a professional, you can be sure that after the difficult kilometers that accumulate, you will find efficient service, access to the necessary facilities and a moment of regeneration before continuing your ride. Below I am posting you 2 popular places friendly to cyclists, but on the map you will find many pubs where you can relax after a long climb. If you have the strength, you can ride up to see the Plaza de San Pedro and the Church of San Pedro or Pino Gordo and Pino de las Dos Pernadas, the oldest trees, which are a must-see for nature lovers visiting the southern part of Tenerife.

Three centuries-old cypresses at the entrance (“Cipreses”). Google Maps Pino Gordo This is an impressive specimen of the Canary Island Pine (Pinus canariensis), one of the most characteristic natural landmarks in Vilaflor. The tree reaches a height of about 45 meters and a trunk circumference at chest height of 9.36 meters, making it one of the thickest trees in Spain. It is estimated to be between 700 and 800 years old, which makes it one of the oldest trees on the island, along with the famous Drago Milenario of Icod de los Vinos. Google Maps Pino de las Dos Pernadas On the other side of the road stands the tallest native tree in Spain, reaching a height of 56 metres. Google Maps If you can't ride your bike Of course, you can use a car or public transport, because Vilaflor and its surroundings are also worth exploring on foot.
