Playa de las Americas to Teide Part 3

This is the third and best part of the Playa de las Americas to Teide trilogy. Start the ride at about 1,000m/3,300 feet above sea level. Once we reach Vilaflor, the ride follows the road up to the old caldera rim through light Canarian pine forest. The once cloudy sky clears to a perfect blue, the higher we climb. Relax for the last couple of kilometres whilst gradually descending towards the base of Mount Teide.
