Punta de Teno is a part of the Teno Rural Park and covers nearly 200,000 acres.
Located on the North-West of the Island it incorporates parts of the municipals of Buenavista del Norte, Los Silos, El Tanque and Santiago del Teide.
Largely due to it's isolated position, it's one of the Islands most beautifully preserved Nature Reserves.
As with most of the Island, the North West of the park contrasts vastly with the South West of the park, the North West being a lot damper providing the lush Fauna.
The park provides the perfect habitat for certain endangered species such as the Spotted Lizard and the Laurel Pigeon. If you are very lucky you could see an Osprey, this bird of prey is why the park has been declared a 'Special Bird Protection Area' they are majestic in flight....
From the Light House you get a fantastic view of Los Gigantes cliffs that drop into the sea from a height of 600 m, the sun sets from there are a sight to see.
There are a number a hamlets in the park, the most famous one being Masca, there is plenty to explore and over 100 km's of marked out trails.
