| Beginning of the trail |
On sunny Sunday I decided to go hiking in Barranco del
Infierno. The entrance is officially closed, but the truth is that the fence
and doors are broken so everybody can pass there. The goal is to reach the
waterfall. Approximate time to reach the
goal and to return is 3 hours. The path starts by the restaurant Othelo , the
charming restaurant where you can find traditional dishes from Canarias such as
mojo for example. I passed the Othelo and the fence, and entered through the
wooden doors for the Barranco del infierno. The first meters of the trail is
small hiking road but the more you walk, the more the path is leading down into
the canyon. When I reached the bottom, I seen a creek which extends until the end
of the path.

On this hiking tour, you have to be careful because there are many
rocks and wet surfaces where you can slip in the minute. The reason why the
barranco is closed is because of the deadly accident that happened there few
years ago. The truth is that every barranco on Tenerife can be equally dangerous
if you are not careful. Barranco del Infierno is very interesting in
archaeological term, because many guanche mummies have been found there. I didn’t
saw caves because they have been enclosed with the rocks after findings so
people couldn’t enter in. After my Indiana Jones adventure, I went back just
before dark. This three hours are really worth your time.
