The Village of Masca is one of the prettiest villages on Tenerife Island. Located above a deep gorge, it is now accessible by a narrow, hairpin road that opened in the early 1990s. There are several restaurants and bars with superb views over the ravine. Experienced walkers can descend by path into the gorge and follow it to the sea, an exciting walk taking several hours there and back. Alternatively, hikers can arrange for a boat to pick them up from the beach.
