The day trip to the north of Tenerife takes us to the fairytale laurel forest "Bosque de la Mercedes" and to La Laguna, UNESCO cultural heritage city. The transfer from the south coast (area between El Medano and Los Gigantes) is included in the tour price. It will take around 1 hour to get to La Laguna, where we can visit a market and taste some local products, among other things, before starting the easy hike through the laurel forest in the Anaga Mountains. A professional guide will accompany you on this walk, which is suitable even for the untrained. The walking time in the laurel forest is between 1.5 and 2 hours - we will adapt the pace of the group to the walking speed. The laurel forest on Tenerife is a unique natural spectacle. In places the canopy is so dense in this truly fairytale area that you cannot see the sky. The return to the south is scheduled for 4:00 pm in the afternoon.

Detailed description
Day tour with hike through the laurel forest in the north of Tenerife
If you would like to visit the laurel forest in the north of Tenerife, combined with an easy forest hike and a visit to the cultural city of La Laguna, we recommend this day tour from the south. The Bosque de Mercedes (Mercedes Forest) in the Anaga Mountains is one of the most pristine places on the whole island. A gift of nature! On this day trip, we combine this with the World Heritage city of San Cristóbal de La Laguna, which boasts historic streets and colonial architecture.
Tenerife's laurel forest impresses with its dense vegetation and is a real contrast to the desert-like south. The trees grow so lush and close together here that they partly form a closed roof and, with the frequent clouds of mist, offer a true magical forest. The landscape park with its rich biodiversity is of great importance for the island and has been part of the UNESCO biosphere reserve for several years. A hike through this wonder forest is a natural experience in a class of its own.

Customer Reviews Easy hike in Tenerife in the Anaga Mountains
Great experience
I can highly recommend this excursion, we had a wonderful day, the hike leads through an incredibly beautiful area and our attentive guide Cyril showed and explained a lot to us. It was great fun. What's more, the tour group was small, the journey was pleasant and we hardly met any people on the way - so it was a really lovely nature experience. We also really enjoyed our visit to the town of La Laguna. We were able to have some time to ourselves here. I would book this trip again at any time.Tolles Erlebnis
Diesen Ausflug kann ich sehr empfehlen, wir hatten einen wunderschönen Tag, die Wanderung führt durch ein unglaublich schönes Gebiet und unser aufmerksamer Guide Cyril hat uns sehr viel gezeigt und erklärt. Es hat großen Spaß gemacht. Zudem war die Reisegruppe klein, die Fahrt war angenehm und uns sind unterwegs kaum Menschen begegnet - also ein wirklich schönes Naturerlebnis. Auch der Besuch der Stadt La Laguna hat uns sehr gefallen. Hier konnten wir die Zeit für uns alleine nutzen. Ich würde diesen Ausflug jederzeit wieder buchen.A fascinating nature experience in the north
An easy walk through the fairytale laurel forest and a visit to the charming town of La Laguna. Highly recommended!Ein faszinierendes Naturerlebnis im Norden
Ein einfacher Spaziergang durch den märchenhaften Lorbeerwald und ein Besuch in der charmanten Stadt La Laguna. Sehr empfehlenswert!A relaxed hiking trip in the Anaga Mountains
My wife and I really enjoyed the hike through the laurel forest in the Anaga mountains. The transfer from the south of Tenerife was smooth and well organised. The hike itself lasted around 2 hours, which was ideal for us as we are not very experienced hikers. The dense vegetation and the mystical atmosphere of the forest were impressive and very different from the dry south of the island. Our guide was friendly and competent and the group harmonised well together. The detour to La Laguna, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, was also worthwhile and offered interesting insights into the cultural history of Tenerife. All in all, a worthwhile excursion that I can recommend. The price was reasonable for what was on offer. A beautiful day in nature!ein entspannter Wanderausflug im Anaga-Gebirge
Meine Frau und ich haben die Wanderung durch den Lorbeerwald im Anaga-Gebirge sehr genossen. Der Transfer vom Süden Teneriffas war reibungslos und gut organisiert. Die Wanderung selbst war mit einer Dauer von etwa 2 Stunden ideal für uns, da wir keine allzu erfahrenen Wanderer sind. Die dichte Vegetation und die mystische Atmosphäre des Waldes waren beeindruckend und ganz anders als der trockene Süden der Insel.Unser Guide war freundlich und kompetent, und die Gruppe harmonierte gut zusammen. Auch der Abstecher nach La Laguna, einer UNESCO-Welterbestätte, war lohnenswert und bot interessante Einblicke in die Kulturgeschichte Teneriffas.
Insgesamt ein lohnenswerter Ausflug, den ich weiterempfehlen kann. Der Preis war angemessen für das Gebotene. Ein schöner Tag in der Natur!
