Full description

Try something new and spend an active day outdoors on this canyoning excursion to La Arcos from Tenerife. Gear up in canyoning gear, then prepare to rappel down the orange canyon walls, take in the fresh air, and get unbeatable views of the landscape.

The approach to this dry canyon begins on a forest track with a gentle slope, where you’ll walk for about 45 minutes. The start of your descent begins with the first rappel of about 22 meters.

From here, you can begin to observe how the accumulation of volcanic ash and the erosion produced by the passing of time has naturally come together and formed this unique canyon.

The light playing against the moss-covered orange walls and creating various shades will undoubtedly be the main attraction during the entire descent.

After finishing 8 rappels, arrive at the Chimoche track to conclude your descent. Finish off your trip by making your way back to the starting point on an approximately 30-minute walk.

Canyoning in the Barranco de Los Arcos (Arches Canyon) is definitively ranked among my top Tenerife experiences along with hiking the Teide volcano and doing the TF-11 trail in the Anaga Rural Park. The scenery is absolutely stunning, it was tons of fun, and I learned a lot about not only about canyoning and rapelling, but also what else to visit on the island from our great guide Jorge.

This was my first canyoning experience. I saw a picture of the Los Arcos canyon and realized that I had to see it with my own eyes. I am very glad that I chose Outdoor Activities Tenerife with such a wonderful guide as Jorge. Jorge is a very positive, interesting and responsible person who made our adventure unforgettable. With him I felt safe, I was not afraid, it was very interesting, informative, and there was very beautiful sights of canyon around. This is the highlight of my holiday in Tenerife. I would like to repeat it again!
