My name is Dagmar and I live in Tenerife for a large part of the year. I know all the Canary Islands through my island trips. In the past, my unforgettable and daring Labrador Lasko accompanied me everywhere. He died at the age of 15.5 in 2023, and my new hiking dog Falco has been by my side since December 2024. As I live near the Teno Mountains, I know almost every corner of this area. But I’m always on the lookout to discover new paths and interesting sights on the islands.
I enjoy photography and writing and love hiking on Tenerife. From time to time I also go cycling in the mountains. I would like to write here for all people who, like me, love the Canary Islands and enjoy hiking. I hope that I can give you good and valuable information and make your tour on the islands easier.
I am always happy to receive tips, suggestions for improvement and feedback.

To hike safely you should be physically fit, have some technical knowledge and suitable equipment. Of course, local knowledge and the respective weather also play a not insignificant role in safe hiking.

Also, the information written down may change over time. The GPS positions shown are not necessarily accurate directions as GPS positioning may be down or inaccurate. Due to rain, landslides, etc., the condition of paths and trails may vary.
Therefore, always prepare well in advance for your trek:
- Check the weather forecast and get up-to-date local information.
- Check whether the route is suitable for yourself (fitness, physical condition).
- Clothing and footwear must be suitable for hiking.

- If possible, only hike with a companion and inform family or friends about the route.
