VM 17.1 Spur trail to the Emilio Fernández Muñoz Nature Camp

VM-17.1

Description

Short 1.5-km section linking Forest Track VM 17 (Pista del P.K. 29 (Track at km 29), Pista de las Vistas de Sánchez, Pista Barranco de la Arena and Pista El Lagar) with the Emilio Fernández Muñoz Nature Activities Centre (CANEFM).

This section, which runs mainly through pine forests, branches off from the main track at the place known as “Piedra de los Pastores” (“Herders’ Rock”), at around km 4.5, and takes Pista Tomás El Guarda.

Along the way you will be rewarded with spectacular views of Mt Teide from the heights of Realejo Bajo before arriving at the camp.

Tips

  • Always stay on the marked trail observing all traffic rules established in the regulations. 
  • When parking, keep away from water intakes or firefighting water storage tanks, and do not block the passage of other vehicles or access to the track.
  • Be extra careful both at junctions with paths and tracks and on sections shared by walkers, horse riders and cyclists. 
  • Proceed with care to avoid accidents that may be caused by obstacles, landslides and uneven terrain. 
  • Check our guide to motor vehicle routes and, if necessary, contact the emergency services by calling 112.
