Astronomy Tour at Teide

Discover constellations, planets, and galaxies through an unforgettable stargazing experience in one of the best spots in the world for astronomy.

Wondering what to do in Tenerife?

Explore the mysteries of the universe under the starry sky of Teide.

Teide National Park is the perfect spot to soak in mind-blowing sights like the rings of Saturn, lunar craters, and endless galaxies and nebulae. Teide and the Tenerife Peaks have recently earned the Starlight certification, making them a top international destination for stargazing.

The best options for a successful observation are:

Montaña de Guajara:
Get ready for an epic adventure at Montaña de Guajara! This stunning peak in Tenerife is perfect for those looking to soak up some breathtaking views and experience the island’s natural beauty. Whether you’re a hiker or just looking for a chill spot to take photos, this place won’t disappoint. Just imagine standing at the summit, with the clouds below you and the sun shining bright. Don’t forget your camera—you’ll want to capture every moment! So grab your pals, lace up your hiking boots, and hit the trails for a day you won’t forget!

It’s the highest peak in the Las Cañadas del Teide amphitheater and a perfect spot for stargazing. Getting there does mean tackling some challenging trails, but trust me, it’s totally worth it!

Surroundings of the Parador de Turismo:

If you’re not up for long hikes, a great alternative is to check out some spots around the Parador de Turismo. What’s the perk? You can always duck inside if the weather suddenly shifts, like when it starts to rain, temperatures drop, or even if it snows (though that last one only happens a few days a year in winter, and you usually get a heads-up).

Lookouts of Teide National Park:

The park’s viewpoints are fantastic spots for stargazing since they’re located in strategic, often elevated places with amazing visibility. Llano de Ucanca is definitely one of the best!
