BMX Parque la Vega
La Laguna
The BMX circuit at Parque de La Vega, in San Cristóbal de La Laguna, is one of those places where the passion for two wheels is truly lived. Although the park is known for its green and family-friendly surroundings, its small but active BMX track has earned an important place in the urban sports scene in northern Tenerife.
This course of hard-packed dirt and cement ramps offers a perfect combination for training speed, balance, and jumps, both in freestyle and more technical styles. Its medium-difficulty layout allows both those who are first pedaling and more experienced riders looking to maintain their fitness and skills to enjoy it.
The atmosphere is one of the biggest draws: on weekends, the circuit fills with young cyclists, families watching, and groups of friends sharing tips or encouraging each other. The spirit is close and collaborative, and it's not uncommon for more experienced riders to teach tricks to beginners or help adjust bikes.
Surrounding the track, La Vega Park completes the experience with rest areas, shade, and trails where you can stroll or relax after an intense session. The park is also known for hosting local BMX and urban sports events, keeping the local spirit alive year-round.
This is one of the most iconic circuits on the island with the best atmosphere. Its accessibility, central location, and natural surroundings make it an ideal place to practice, learn, and enjoy BMX without pressure, with that unique blend of sport, freedom, and community that defines the true spirit of La Laguna.

What to see
Biblioteca de Arte TEA
If you need a quiet place in the heart of Santa Cruz to stop for a moment, the TEA Art Library is perfect for escaping the city's hustle and bustle. Here you can sit and read, study, or simply spend some time in silence surrounded by books and contemporary architecture. The space is spacious, bright, and very pleasant, ideal for those seeking tranquility, culture, and a different atmosphere within the city.
Activities
Albergue Comarcal Valle Colino
The Valle Colino Regional Shelter in La Laguna is Tenerife's main shelter for abandoned animals. In addition to caring for and sheltering dogs and cats, it offers the opportunity to volunteer in its daily work: walking animals, helping with cleaning them, or assisting with adoption campaigns. A caring and emotionally rewarding experience for animal lovers.
Beaches
Piscina natural de Jóver
The Jóver Natural Pool in Tejina is an authentic and tranquil coastal retreat, where the Atlantic Ocean softens between walls of black lava. Surrounded by seafaring houses and a pleasant local atmosphere, this pool offers clear waters and an ideal setting for relaxing, swimming, or enjoying the sound of the sea. Its traditional essence makes it one of the most authentic bathing areas in northern Tenerife.
Nightlife
Urban 180
If you enjoy sipping a drink with city views and continuing the night without leaving one spot, Azotea Urban 180 is one of those rooftop bars I love to visit. Located on the seventh floor of the Hotel Urban Anaga in Santa Cruz, it shows: you get a panoramic view of the city, the sunsets take on a whole new dimension, the music and cocktails liven up the atmosphere, and as night falls, the place transforms into a lively rooftop club with a great vibe and people ready to have a good time.
Shopping
Mercadillo del Agricultor Tacoronte
If you come to this town and crave authentic local flavors, the Tacoronte Farmers' Market is my go-to spot. It's a traditional farmers' market where the producers themselves sell fruits, vegetables, cheeses, honey, breads, and family wines directly from their farms to you—no middlemen—all fresh and in season. The atmosphere is lively and genuine, perfect for picking up products that truly make a difference in taste.
Sports
Santa Cruz Extreme
The Santa Cruz Extreme is an iconic mountain race in Tenerife, which runs through Anaga Rural Park and finishes in Santa Cruz. It has several categories (60 km, 33 km, 18 km, 10 km, and a vertical race), with steep slopes, routes along trails, and traditional farmhouses. Held in October, it attracts runners of many nationalities; it is also notable for its sustainable approach and for promoting the natural and rural value of Anaga.
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.
