🗺️ Route Overview

The ride starts at the KUDO Rent office in Puerto de Santiago and climbs inland through Tamaimo and Chío, joining the famous TF-38 for a gradual ascent into Teide National Park. You’ll ride through volcanic plains under Tenerife’s towering peak, surrounded by surreal lava formations and vast pine forests.

After reaching the high point near Boca Tauce, begin a thrilling descent through Vilaflor and Arona, eventually dropping down to the southern coast. The final stretch takes you through Adeje, Playa San Juan, and back along the ocean to Puerto de Santiago — legs spinning, sun shining, and spirits high.
