PR-TF 71.2 Camino de Ifonche

Technical information

Trail description

This traditional pathway used to link the region of Ifonche to the village of La Quinta, one of the oldest in the area, and is part of the Royal Pathway that joined the highlands of Guía de Isora, Adeje, Arona and Vilaflor. One of the advantages of this route is undeniably the chance to explore an area whose ethnographic, natural and scenic heritage remains practically intact. After all, it passes through three different Protected Nature Areas. The trail begins in the Protected Landscape of Ifonche, at the point where it joins section 5 of the GR 131 Long Distance Trail, combining pine trees with the traditional agricultural landscape of farm terraces, where crops grow in the sandy ground of the highland area of Chasna. Once you have made it up to the top of Hell's Ravine, you will venture into the pine forest to a place called El Aserradero. This is where the trail meets the PR-TF 71 Camino de Teresme trail, which leads to the top of the municipality of Adeje. Just a little further down from there, you can join the PR-TF 71.1 to La Quinta. You can either make your journey back the way you came or take the PR-TF 71 trail (towards La Casa Fuerte de Adeje) or the PR-TF 71.1 trail (towards La Quinta).
