An adventure ! A road I know and love – to Las Canadas in Tenerife. Destination : GUAJARA !

The magnificent father of this Landscape – El Teide. But this is not our destination today. We are seeking the path of Charles Piazzi Smyth – in 1856.

Me and El Teide.

And now – Mt GUAJARA ! Where Piazzi first tested Isaac Newton’s prediction that astronomical observations would be much improved by going high up above most of Earth’s pesky atmosphere.

From the Parador hotel – Mount Guajare.

To the left, El Teide, to the right, Mount Guajara which we will now climb!

Tourist Bri and Mt Guajara. Ready to roll.

The Guajara team !

The start of the trail Guajara.

On the Guajara trail (in jeep!)

And now on foot – not so easy !

And then we are in Heaven ! At Sunset …

And even more beautiful – the shadows of Teide and Guajara.
