Tenerife is known for its extraordinary natural spaces thanks to the island’s unique volcanic landscapes that molded into magical climbing areas. The destination also features year-round warm weather, which draws outdoor enthusiasts to the area. Tenerife is a rock climber’s paradise, with plenty of areas to explore.
The island offers a diverse range of climbing routes for all skill sets and abilities. Most have free access, but some require permission, typically obtained in-situ through a QR code. Sites like Guaria, near Guia de Isora, and some other places in Teide National Park feature QR codes.
Arico
One of the first rock-climbing sites in Southern Tenerife, Arico has more than 250 single-pitch sport climbing routes, including some for every level of difficulty. This is the best route of any climbing area on the island.
Guaria
Guaria, the island’s third-largest climbing area, is one of Tenerife’s tallest routes. Travelers who prefer longer single-pitch routes or multi-pitch climbing will find what they are looking for in Guaria. You might even be able to catch a glimpse of one of the island’s endangered bird species living in the area.
