Leaving mainland Spain behind, the crossing to Tenerife lands you in the Canary Islands, within reach of Mount Teide's volcanic peak and the island's black and golden sand beaches. Teide National Park's lunar landscape is a UNESCO World Heritage site and the cable car to near its summit offers views across the entire archipelago on a clear day. The colonial old town of La Laguna, another UNESCO site, and the resort strip of Playa de las Américas offer contrasting sides of the island, while Anaga's ancient laurel forest in the northeast rewards those willing to hike further off the beaten path.
