Barranquismo Barranco Río Superior
Parque Rural de Anaga
The Río Superior Ravine, located in the Anaga Mountains, is one of the most impressive and complete canyoning experiences in Tenerife. Anaga, declared a Biosphere Reserve, offers one of its most characteristic landscapes: a humid environment, surrounded by laurel forest, where every step smells of wet earth and vibrant vegetation. This ravine, although relatively short, contains a diversity of natural elements that make it a small paradise for those seeking adventure and contact with nature.
The descent begins in the upper reaches of the rural park and soon enters an environment that seems out of this world: moss-covered walls, roots intertwined in the rock, small waterfalls, and hints of mist that filter through the trees. Throughout the route, participants face technical rappels, some over 20 meters, combined with slippery steps, climbs, and descents that keep the excitement constant.
The technical difficulty is moderate, but the nature of the canyon demands attention: the terrain is damp, the walls are narrow, and the ropes must be handled with precision. The experience is usually done in small groups or with a local guide, as orientation within the forest can be difficult.
Beyond the sporting aspect, the Río Superior Ravine is a direct encounter with the essence of Anaga. Its humid atmosphere, its light filtered through the foliage, and the sound of water sliding between the rocks make the descent feel almost mystical. Here, more than conquering a ravine, one is enveloped by it.
Canyoning in the Río Superior is like entering a microclimate from another time, where nature dominates every detail. It is a demanding adventure, but also one of the most rewarding for those seeking to discover the greenest, deepest, and most silent side of Tenerife.

Nightlife
Shopping
Ron Guajiro
If you want to try a rum with a true Canarian identity, Guajiro is one of those that's part of the local culture. You'll notice it especially in the honey rum: sweet, smooth, and very easy to drink, perfect after a meal or on the rocks. They also have drier and oaked versions if you prefer something more robust. It's a very local product, the kind you'll find in traditional bars and shops around the island.
Sports
BMX Parque la Vega
The BMX circuit at Parque de La Vega in La Laguna is one of the most active spaces for freestyle enthusiasts in northern Tenerife. Surrounded by greenery and a youthful atmosphere, it offers a course with ramps, jumps, and modules ideal for practicing technique and style. It's a regular meeting point for local riders who appreciate its relaxed, community-oriented atmosphere, open to all levels.
Trekking
El Tomadero
A circular route in Anaga Rural Park connecting Punta del Hidalgo with El Tomadero, ascending via a channel carved into the rock and descending through the ravine. It's approximately 6 km with little elevation gain, but includes technical and exposed sections that increase the difficulty. The channel is in very good condition and clean, although it can be quite vertigo-inducing in some places. The descent through the ravine is rocky and uncomfortable. A short but demanding route, not recommended for people with vertigo.
