Piedra de los pastores

It's the perfect spot to catch your breath, recharge, and enjoy a landscape few places can match. Cyclists know it well, hikers treasure it, and anyone who visits understands why it generates such devotion among locals and visitors seeking the most natural and genuine side of Tenerife.
