We had a lazy morning getting up late and having breakfast before heading to Barranco del Infierno (Hell's Gorge). This is supposed to be Tenerife's deepest gorge. The walk itself was quite pleasant, walking along the gorge with large drop offs. The walk slowly descended from a desert landscape into trees and mini forest with a stream and finally a waterfall which was slightly dissapointing. Once we had got here we headed back stopping off to take photos along the way before heading to a famous village and gorge called Masca.
The drive to Masca was certainly precarious with huge cliffs and mountains and difficulty passing any other cars on the road. Along the way we met a bus which was almost impossible to get around and I had to reverse on a mountain which was pretty scary. Once we'd got to Masca the gorge being pretty spectacular and the village was lovely. We had a late lunch here before having a little walk around and taking photos. After this we climbed back up the mountains taking photos before heading down to the Los Gigantes (Giant Cliffs). Unfortunately the road had been closed so we had to settle for a little lava beach for sunset. We then headed back and had our last dinner in Tenerife before getting a little drunk.
