Mirador de Ortuño
La Esperanza
The Ortuño Viewpoint is one of the most iconic spots on the La Esperanza road, and a classic for those traveling the route to Mount Teide in search of unique landscapes. At 1,600 meters above sea level, this natural balcony offers one of the most privileged views of northern Tenerife: the sea of clouds stretching like a white blanket over the valleys and mountains, while Mount Teide rises majestically in the background, framed by the intense blue of the sky.
This viewpoint is especially famous at sunrise and sunset, when the light transforms the landscape into a unique postcard, with colors ranging from gold to violet. The image of the volcano emerging from the clouds is one of the most iconic images any visitor can take away from the island.
The surroundings of the viewpoint are marked by extensive pine forests, characteristic of this area of Tenerife, which provide an intense green contrast to the volcanic landscape and the clear sky. In addition to being a perfect place for photography, the Ortuño Viewpoint invites you to stop and calmly enjoy the grandeur of nature, breathing fresh air and experiencing the serenity of the mountains.
More than just a stop along the way, this viewpoint represents a sensory and visual experience that reflects the essence of the island: volcanoes, forests, and endless skies that combine to create an unforgettable natural spectacle.
