Trail description
This linear trail links the trails of Arenas Negras and Volcán de Fasnia. You will start on the northeast part of the Arenas Negras trail, near Montaña del Cerrillar, journeying up the slopes of Montaña de la Punta de Maja and across the start of El Filo Trail 8. Your hike continues eastbound, perpendicular to that trail, to the mountain pass between Montaña de Enmedio and La Carnicería, where it ends on Volcán de Fasnia Trail 20. Along the way, you will glimpse the magnificent landscapes of the Valley of La Orotava between the volcanoes of the Caramujo area, unless the view is hidden beneath a sea of clouds. The trail allows hikers who are crossing the National Park to get from the El Portillo area to Izaña without taking the paved road, which makes for a more enriching experience across the peaks and brings you into closer contact with nature.
