Cosa aspettarsi
This is a varied mountain route in northwestern Tenerife along the TF-82 and TF-423, ascending from the arid volcanic valley of Santiago del Teide over the famous Puerto de Erjos before dropping down onto the quiet, elevated agricultural plateau of Tierra del Trigo
The character of the road is defined by its dramatic weather divide and changing pavement profile. Leaving the southern sunshine, the route carves up the fast, sweeping tarmac of the TF-82 to cross the mountain pass. Once over the summit, you enter the lush northern slopes and turn onto the narrow, technical TF-423, winding past ancient agricultural terraces and stone farmhouses
A fantastic combination of flowing mountain curves and quiet rural single-track tarmac. Watch out for sudden temperature drops or damp surfaces as you cross over the Erjos pass into the northern moisture, and enjoy the effortless agility of a punchy sport-touring machine like the 2026 Yamaha Tracer 9

Curiosità
- Santiago del Teide sits in a valley shaped by the 1909 Chinyero eruption, the last volcanic event to occur on the island of Tenerife
- The Puerto de Erjos mountain pass acts as a natural wall, trapping the northern trade winds and creating two completely different ecosystems on either side
- Tierra del Trigo literally translates to "Land of Wheat", historically serving as one of the most important grain-producing regions for the island
- As you turn onto the TF-423, the landscape immediately shifts into a patchwork of ancient agricultural terraces and traditional farmhouses
- The advanced electronics and up/down quickshifter on the Tracer 9 make the constant transitions between fast sweepers and tight rural hairpins completely seamless
