The Guachinche restaurants are typical for the canary isles and here you are served typical canarian dishes and specialties from the region.

Patea tus montes – activities and adventure

Saturday, August 15th, 2009
Last month I discovered a really good company, which is organizing excursions and sports activities all around the isle of Tenerife. The young and innovative company is called patea tus montes, what means more or less: hike through your mountains. José and his team are offering their service since 1996. Their headquarter is located in La Orotava, in the North of the isle. With patea tus montes you can hike all over the isle. Excursions are offered round Mount Teide National Park, the vulcanic landscape, in the Anaga mountains and Teno and many other interesting places on Tenerife. With the professional guides you get a lot of background information about fauna, flora and geological conditions of the isle.
