🎧  Listen to Introduction

Located on the island of Tenerife, Teide National Park features the Teide-Picoviejo stratovolcano, which at 3,718 meters above sea level is the highest peak in Spanish territory. Rising 7,500 meters above the seafloor, it is considered the third highest volcanic structure in the world and the setting is spectacular. The visual impact of the site is heightened by atmospheric conditions that give the landscape a constantly changing texture and tone, while the "sea of clouds" forms an impressive backdrop to the mountains. Teide is of global importance as it provides evidence of geological processes in the evolution of oceanic islands.
