Adeje

The Adeje Massif and the Barranco del Infierno Special Nature Reserve encompass an area that is of both geo-morphological interest and flora and fauna interest. The spectacular cascade, fed by the waters of the Roque Abinque stream, the dragon trees clinging to the crags and the water plants are other points of interest.

The Caldera del Rey Natural Monument, near Las Americas, has felt the destructive effect of the town. It is, however, a protected area representing a maar (kind of volcanic edifice produced by freatic-magmatic activity), which even has a special micro-climate.

Other protected natural areas include the Acantilados de Adeje (Adeje cliffs), the Erques ravine, the coastal cliffs and part of Corona Forestal.
