"Morron de Agujerada is the highest point of Gran Canaria - it is one of the most innaccessible high points of all Spanish provinces - I do not reccomend to climb it without a rope (the easiest route is UIAA II+/III- although it is not an obvious one). The rock is very good! However, to go down it is the easiest to use a rope. If you can't or don't want to bring your climbing gear on Gran Canaria you may use a service of Aron (UMIAGA Experience) +34646396746 • [email protected] • umiaga.com." — robertguzik • Feb 22, 2024

" Beautiful route to climb the highest point of the Island of El Hierro which is a Biosphere Reserve, we have been lucky because the humid Trade winds create fog in this area of ​​the Island and visibility can be reduced. The king of birds on this island is the Kestrel because I think we have seen dozens of them in just two days. The views from the summit to the Gulf Zone and the Atlantic are truly magnificent while some clouds pass quickly over our heads" — franciscobirruezo • Feb 25, 2023

"Several trails ascend to this peak on the Island of La Gomera from the GM2 highway as it passes through the Garajonay National Park. Good day to climb the peak because the visibility was good throughout the route, the trail is comfortable but the climb is continuous. The songs of the birds are incredible in this forest and each step becomes a symphony. The views are magnificent and the air is very pure in this place in the middle of the Atlantic." — franciscobirruezo • Feb 20, 2023

"From the obvious car park by the waterboard building. Quite steep initially, then a little detour onto the first high point and via a clear path up Talahija then rejoining main route. Thereafter a good 3-3km trek up a steady incline on ridge on a good track. Saw ravens and goats. At the cone proper a twisty climb but good path. Explored a little alternative routes on to some of the other hills here, but couldn't see anything that didn't look a bit hairy. Clear at summit, far reaching views. Really windy at times. Back same route. A little tedious having few alternative options. Worth doing. Took me 4 hours there and back with 15minutes rest and anotther 15 minutes looking off the path for options.

"Sunday 28th January 2018. The first day of a two-day trek on Pico del Teide 3718m, Tenerife, Canary Islands. From the Teide National Hotel at 2150m by route 19 to Montaña Blanca car park, then by route 7 to the Altavista Refuge at 3260m. 12.9km, with 1250m of ascent and 140m of descent. 6hrs 45mins. At 3718m, Pico del Teide, on the island of Tenerife, is the highest mountain in Spain and its dominions - over-topping Mulhacén, the highest mountain on the Spanish mainland, by nearly 240 metres. The peak is a stratovolcano, formed from around 160,000 years ago (very recent, in geological terms), and still active - the last eruption from the summit itself occurred around the year 850 AD, although the most recent eruption was from the north-west ridge in 1909. The stratovolcano sits on the remains of an earlier shield volcano, which formed about 6-5 million years ago. It is thought to be the fourth stratovolcano on the island, with the first reaching a height of around 4500m. For further details, see at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teide. Pico del Teide is also somewhat unusual in that it lies within a tectonic plate (the African one), rather than on a boundary, where mos..." — marktrengove • Jan 29, 2018
