Czego się spodziewać
This is a magical, atmospheric mountain ride through the heart of the Anaga Rural Park along the TF-12, climbing from the town of Las Mercedes through ancient laurisilva cloud forests to the dramatic ridge-line viewpoint of Mirador El Bailadero
The character of the road is defined by its dense tree-canopy tunnels and misty high-altitude ridges. Tracing one of the oldest geological areas of Tenerife, the route plunges through dark, moss-covered woodlands before breaking out onto sharp crests with sweeping views over steep volcanic ravines and the northern coastline
A highly atmospheric and technical ride requiring smooth throttle inputs, as the shaded tarmac remains frequently damp from trade-wind moisture. Maintain a relaxed pace through the narrow, blind corners, enjoy the natural cooling of the forest, and experience the journey on a nimble, confidence-inspiring bike like the 2026 BMW F 800 GS
