What makes a good sunset at Pico del Teide?
Teide is a 3,715 meter volcano and the highest point in Spain. At altitude, you're frequently above the marine cloud layer that covers the coast, which means clear sunset views even when the island below is socked in. The volcanic landscape in the Las Cañadas caldera turns vivid rust and orange at golden hour as the light rakes across the lava formations. The classic shot is from the caldera floor looking up at the peak during alpenglow. A permit is required to access the summit zone, which should be booked in advance.
