Teide hiking: permits, tickets and trails

Updated October 30, 2026 · 5 routes

Mount Teide sits inside a national park, and some trails and the summit area are controlled. Rules, quotas and prices are set by the park and can change.

We do not sell permits and we do not set the rules. Use the official national parks booking site for the current position, and treat anything on this page as a starting point.
