Going up Teide

Whilst on holiday in Tenerife, my brother and I took an organised trip up the volcano Teide.

We stopped at a café in Villaflor to get food and so people could buy cable car tickets.

The Los Roques de Garcia are situated at around 2000m altitude and contain the famous Cinchado rock.

We walked up a yellow hill directly opposite the cable car station to take photos of the landscape.
