This book is ideal for countryside-lovers staying either in the south of Tenerife or on the neighbouring island of La Gomera (only 35 minutes away by hydrofoil). Hydrofoil schedules allow you enough time to get between the islands for a days car touring or walking. This book is divided into two parts. The Southern Tenerife section has car tours covering the whole of Tenerife using Playa de las Americas/ Los Cristianos as a base. It also describes several spectacular walks including the famous routes in the Barranco de Masca & the Paisaje Lunar (moon landscape). The Gomera section describes tours & walks all over the island (which incidentally is the authors favourite of all the Canaries).

The Landscapes Series" (with over 50 destinations) has been dubbed the blue Bibles by the " Sunday Times"." ...
