PR TF 12.2 Pedro Álvarez Spur trail (from PR TF 12)

PR-TF 12.2

Macizo de Anaga

Difficulty: Medium

Description

This route, which connects with the PR TF 12 trail (Cruz del Carmen - Bajamar), starts at the beginning of the El Moquinal path, near Cuadras de Don Benito. 

The path enters a leafy forest until it reaches the road that leads to the La Quebrada Recreational Area. 

The path does not reach this recreational area, however, but runs along a firebreak heading towards La Orilla. The route then turns left along a gentle path that leads to Pedro Álvarez via Hoya de Nieto. 

The end of the trail is at the Pedro Álvarez Church, right in the centre of the village of Pedro Álvarez.

Tips

  • Always stay on the marked trail and do not enter private property, hunting grounds, water galleries, wells or caves. 
  • Pay special attention when crossing or walking along trails used by bicycles, horses or motor vehicles and when walking in ravines with water courses.
  • Avoid direct encounters with potentially dangerous animals, such as livestock, beehives, and dogs.
  • Proceed with caution and watch for obstacles, loose rocks, uneven terrain or steep slopes to avoid accidents and falls.
  • Check out our guide to hiking in Tenerife and, if necessary, contact the emergency services by calling 112.
