Masca Valley, Canary Islands, Spain
4.5 (2.795 reviews) Spent Ranking #20 in Tenerife Valleys
Must see location
Have been before a few times and have settled on using buses which this year was problematical. We travelled from Los Cristianos via Adeje and Santiago de Teidi. Late buses and an a large crowd for the return trip from the valley meant no room on the smaller mini bus but we eventually escaped. No taxis available. I suspect this was a post covid one off problem. If you want hassle free then take a booked trip or hire a taxi at a price. The Valley itself is well worth the trip. Stunning views and plenty of walks. The area is very scenic.

Lovely place to visit.
We visited Masca as part of a Teide National Park tour. What a lovely tucked away little place. We could see why it was popular with the pirates in days gone by. we made purchases in the little shop and cafe there and bought a leather woven braclet from a man who was making all kinds of leather goods.

Great views
Let me start with the difficulties to find a parking spot, plenty of tourists making it hard to find a spot to eat or drink (most of which close around 4pm). We were unlucky to arrive when it was raining and unfortunately due to poor shoes choice, we were slipping all the way down the stones - please bring proper shoes! The way to the place itself may be difficult for beginner drivers or drivers from flat countries - it is truly a rocky road to the top of the mountain and around it so it’s best for an experienced driver. The valley itself guarantees great views of mountains, green and ocean altogether. I would recommend it as a half day trip (morning times preferred), there is definitely plenty of kilometers to walk!
