A wonderful hike on PR-TF 65 and PR-TF 65.1 from Los Gigantes via Degollada del Roque to El Molledo; a small town near Santiago del Teide, on the southern flanks of the Teno Mountains.
The first part of the route is less interesting, but when you pass Tamaimo and head towards Degollada del Roque, the wow factor increases dramatically with breathtaking views of the impressive Risco Blanco, and the two gorges Barranco Mancha de los Diaz and Barranco del Natero / Barranco Seco. Great views, too, over El Teide, Tamaimo and La Gomera.
Overall, the route is moderate, but quite demanding in some places.
