DETAILED HIKING GUIDE TO VENTANAS DE GUIMAR
You can read a guiding to hiking the Ventanas the Guimar trail on the Smart Travel Family blog at smarttravel.fa...
TRAIL DESCRIPTION
This video provides a very practical overview of what to expect when hiking the Ventanas de Guimar trail. The trail is usually known as the "1000 Windows of Guimar" in English.
CIRCULAR vs. ONE-WAY TRAIL
There are several ways how to do the trail, but this video covers the circular route option. If you decide to the circular route, it will be almost 15km of hiking, but you get the benefit of starting and ending in the same location. One-way variants of the trail are ranging from 7-10+ km, but you have to organize for someone to pick you up at the other end, unless you finish in Guimar city.
TRAIL SEGMENTS:
Out of all the 15km trail, the "windows" or tunnels section is in the first 5 kilometers. Kilometers 6-7 are done in a canyon that ascends to an old and now closed mine. Kilometers 8-9 are the ascent on top of the mountain ridge (be aware that it's a non-stop ascent of around 1000 vertical meters). Kilometers 10-15 are the descent back to start of the trail at the radio towers.

CAN YOU TRUST THIS VIDEO?
The Smart Travel Family lived in the North of Tenerife 🏝️ in 2022 and 2023. During that time I (Kristaps) undertook a quest to do all the 11 official Anaga Rural Park trails. This and other Tenerife trail videos come from my experience of hiking alone and with my kids.

Is there a car park nearby?

Park near the radio antenas ('Antena de comunicaciones' in Google Maps). The only spot and it's where everyone parks. Seems to be public land.
