Was Sie erwartet
This is a scenic, wide-sweeping northern coastal journey on Tenerife along the TF-5, running from the high-altitude town of El Tanque through fertile valleys down into the historic heart of La Orotava
The character of the road is defined by its dramatic sea views, lush agricultural terraces, and smooth flow. Leaving the heights of El Tanque, the route descends past Garachico, passes through historic wine municipalities like Icod de los Vinos, and traces coastal cliffs near San Juan de la Rambla before entering the expansive, garden-filled Orotava Valley under the gaze of Mount Teide
A highly enjoyable, relaxed coastal tour offering excellent visibility and a comfortable rhythm. Mind the moderate local traffic around key towns like Icod and Los Realejos, soak in the vibrant greenery of the trade-wind-fed slopes, and experience the journey on a smooth, protective middleweight tourer like the 2025 Honda XL750 Transalp
