Thanks for the vlog Freddie and Monika we loved it. Cracking music, great video. Me and Debbie went up mount Teide in 1979 whilst on our honeymoon and visited again 40 years later, we took photos in front of some of the rock formations you passed, the “finger of god” and the steps that you passed on the right were used in the 1956 film The Ten Commandments with Charlton Heston as Moses. The black Obsidian rocks you walked over is made into Jewellery by the locals. Once again loved the Vlog. Thanks.

But the history buff in me has been absolutely enjoying seeing the excitement of exploration and the stories of every little location as you get to them. You guys are hitting your stride, and it shows exponentially. So enjoyable.

An amazing trip and some trees and the odd bit of lava. Tenerife is never a place I never thought of going until now , your both changing my thoughts for the future as your trip goes along . Keep your fluid levels up Freddie and I,m not talking smoky whiskey . Thank you both for the video , ride and stay safe .Have you seen Bush Craft Bear on the Tube he is walking and cycling up and around their active volcano , well worth a look as he does a Great full English breakfast in the woods .

Hi Freddie, those what you call 'sand' are just volcanic ashes and erosive debrises from the rocks around due to the wind. The green rocks you saw near the road are produced in some kind of volcanic eruptions in which water is involved.

This is a really valid point- i’m very curious to see how I’ll feel after six months.

But it is SUPERB!🙂 Good luck with the location scouting- incredibly exciting, and i’ve heard nothing hut good things about Portugal!

I love your videos, only discovered them recently it late to the party, but i find them scenic and the information you give is interesting. Mt Teide has more greenery now on the west side than it used to have, before you get to the lava area is a lovely woodland picnic area with a toilet block, we had a picnic there, but through covid they planted 2.000 trees! I love the ride to Teide it is so diverse and never seems too busy on the roads either. Great video :D

Hello again Freddie and Monica I am very happy that you continue to enjoy so much on my island. Yes, you really liked the route up Teide, from the southern part (which is the driest on the island), when you make the descent or ascent from the northern part (by La Esperanza TF-21 or by La Orotava TF- 24) you will not stop hallucinating. There you will see clearly how you go from a vegetation of medium height to that of high mountains. I recommend that you stop at several viewpoints on the TF-21, but be sure to visit the Chipeque viewpoint (it is the best view of Teide and the best northern part you will ever see; because if you are lucky you will be able to see the authentic sea of ​​clouds ). By the way, know that the Canary Island pine is the only pine in the world that supports fire. Although you see its exterior burned, inside it continues to live, after one or two years, it will regain its leaves and little by little it will be like again. The famous stone on which everyone takes photos on foot of Mount Teide is not "El finger de Dios" (which was in Gran Canaria), it is "El Roque Cinchado". Indeed, when Christopher Columbus passed through Tenerife back to La Gomera in 1492, Tenerife had not yet been conquered by the Kingdom of Castile, they did it between 1494 and 1496 (Tenerife was the last island to be conquered by the Spanish). I think your GPS made an alternative route to the usual one (where the roads are actually much better). Ah I forgot to tell you that the two parts of the movie "Clash of the Titans" parts of them were recorded here in Tenerife (in Teide, Teno, Abades ...) Greetings. 😉

Enjoyed that, thanks. You are right about lava being molten rock -- it is in fact molten rock that has reached the earth's surface and flowed out. Molten rock that is underground is called magma.

The dust vortices might explain the sand. If the local cliff faces regularly stir up vortices there, they will grind the lava into sand over time.

Hi Freddie, we are heading to Tenerife on Sunday 16th for two weeks, staying in Puerto De La Cruz and looking to rent a bike for some of that period to do some exploring. I have a friend, Peter Watters, married to a Tenerife lady, they have an apartment just north of PDLC, they flew in last week for 23 days, he is a fellow biker and will renting a bike with us to do some exploring. I have sent him a link to your channel. He is over there quite often and he says it would be great to link up with you some time. Hopefully, we can arrange to meet while we are there.

The film “1000,000 yearsBC” with Racquel Welch was filmed in the main crater. It’s still a fair walk from the cable car to the top and it has several little steam vents up there - just ask my other half!
