Barranco del Infierno
Adeje
If you feel like getting out of the sun and beach and seeing another side of Tenerife, the Barranco del Infierno is a brutal experience. It's in Adeje, in the south of the island, very close to the tourist area, but when you enter the path, you feel like you've stepped into another world: pure nature, silence and wild landscapes.
It's a route of about 6.5 kilometres in total (outward and return), with a gentle slope and a good path, so you don't need to be a hiking pro. With comfortable shoes, water and a willingness to walk, you'll be fine. Of course, there are parts with some shade, but also many areas in the sun, so it's best to bring protection and leave early, especially if it's hot.
The most spectacular thing is not only the surroundings - with huge rock walls, typical canyon vegetation and incredible views - but at the end you'll find a 200-metre waterfall which, on a dry volcanic island like Tenerife, feels almost magical. Swimming is not allowed, but it's totally worth it just to see it and hear the water cascading down.
All in all, it will take you between 2 and 3 hours, depending on your pace and how much you stop to take pictures (which will surely be a lot, because the place is photogenic as can be).
