Hells Ravine (Barranco del Infierno)

The main natural attraction of Adeje is the nearby Barranco del Infierno, Hells Ravine, the deepest gorge in not only in Tenerife but the Canary Islands.  The very impressive steep sides of the deep Hell's gorge Barranco del Infierno can be reached by a trail from Adeje.

Allow around 2.5 to 4 hours for a return hike of 6.5 kilometres. Strong footwear suitable for wet & slippery rocks and additional clothing advised. flip flops & sandles are not allowed.

The route is obvious because the path has been tended and a little too manicured for a true mountain walker.

There is a small 80 metre high waterfall in the upper reaches of the ravine, with amazing views to be seen, over the entire land. Note how the vegetation changes as you ascend up the Barranco del Infierno from rather barren landscape to one of lush vegetation at higher altitudes.

At least a litre of water is required because the ravine is a sun trap, and i suggest something for a snack or a bar of chocolate. Keep some in case of emergency.

The best time to do the walk is in the morning before the sun becommes too strong or later on a heavy overcast day.

The ravine may be closed during and after rainfalls because of the danger of rock falls.

It is possible that provided Hard hats have to be worn in the higher reaches. They will inform you at the pay / information desk at the entrance.

A charge is made and only 220 people are allowed into the gorge so it is advisable to book in advance & also check if the walk is open. please call one day before to book 922 782885. The phone is often very engaged. The best time to do it it’s after 14:00

To Book & /or Check Weather conditions



Bad weather, such as rain can cause landslides while it is raining & for a few days after it stops. The Ravine may be closed for Safety

Only 300 people per day are allowed therefore Booking in advance is almost essencial

Many boat trips include food and drinks, and some will provide a free bus service to the harbour.

Don't forget your camera, sun screen lotion and swim costume.
