Description
In Tenerife, there’s still a hidden treasure, a unique corner of the island where you can witness its entire history, from the first volcanic eruptions to the present day. The San Blas Environmental Reserve is a gem that combines both nature and the culture of the Canary Islands. With over 500,000 m² of protected space, visitors can see the marks left by the island’s volcanic past, the endemic flora and fauna that settled here thousands of years ago, and the traces left by humans throughout history, from the Guanches to the present.
San Blas is a perfect example of the island’s rich natural and cultural heritage. Its near-intact preservation has allowed the conservation of ecosystems unique to this area, and scientific studies in this land have revealed archaeological, biological, geological, and historical significance. The harmony between animals, plants, and humans has been maintained for centuries, leaving behind a legacy of conservation that allows us to understand the true richness of this area.
San Blas’ stunning topography, in addition to being visually spectacular, is part of this natural and cultural heritage, making it a prime example of patrimonial conservation.
A Unique Experience
The San Blas Environmental Reserve Tour starts with a visit to the Interpretation Center, followed by a guided tour of the natural space to learn about the rich heritage of the area. In just over two hours, visitors will enjoy a fun yet scientifically rigorous introduction to the island's history while experiencing nature at its finest.
