Playa de El Bollullo
A wild black-sand cove below the El Rincón cliff, 200 m by 40, with volcanic stacks rising out of the sea. A few minutes down a stepped path, or a 45-minute walk from Puerto de la Cruz.
Centro de Visitantes Cruz del Carmen
The starting point for Anaga's classic walks, with a permanent exhibition, an audiovisual, toilets and accessible parking. The Sendero de los Sentidos and trails PR-TF 01, 10 and 12 all leave from here.
Parque Rural de Anaga
The massif at the north-eastern tip, among the island's oldest geology, with laurel forest, isolated hamlets and black beaches reachable only on foot or by boat. A Biosphere Reserve since 2015. From Icod it is at the opposite end of the island: give it a full day.
