Additional Information

Teide National Park is a prime location for witnessing exquisite sunsets in Tenerife. In 2013, the park earned designation as a Starlight Tourist Destination and Starlight Reserve from the Starlight Foundation. Since this acknowledgement, the number of astronomy enthusiasts flocking to the park has increased, positioning Tenerife as a global hub for astronomers. The low light pollution, acknowledged by its UNESCO World Heritage Site recognition, in Teide National Park, creates an ideal setting for stargazing, where excellent visibility conditions enable observations of various celestial bodies and constellations. Strict regulations exist in Tenerife to preserve the excellent conditions for stargazing in the park, including controlling air traffic and enforcing light emission standards within the park boundaries. Situated at 2000 meters above sea level, you can identify constellations and their most luminous stars, as mapped by early stargazers.

Wonderful Star Smash admidst Volcano Rocks - We were ‚lucky‘ to have the Calima ongoing whilst our trip, so it was quite warm when it started at 8. Normally get prepared that it will be very cold - about 2 to 5 degrees or less! So pack warm clothes, because you will be in the worlds second largest crater!!! Due to other tours the meeting point was unfortunately pretty overcrowded, but our Guide Ozzy started quickly to transfer to the main observation point. There they also bring some Drinks and food to buy like Homemade Hot Choccolate! They prepared all the telescopes and though the calima was wandering around, the sight was pretty good. We have seen the crescent Moon, Jupiter with it’s four moons, the Orion nebula and others through them. We learned some interesting facts about our galaxy and solar systems and Ozzy and his Colleges were always very funny and most capable. We highly recommend the tour, but not for Kids under 12, because it is getting pretty Dark and also cold and standing in the shadow of this big volcano could be pretty scary. And due to a rather big group you have to wait a bit before getting a look through one of the telescopes. Also because of many different languages spoken we finally ended up in an english tour. Ozzy speaks at least four languages, but cannot hold the observation always in all languages. So that could be annoying, too for kids.

Worth doing - We had a really good time. Learnt some new things and got some amazing photos thanks to the tips given for phone cameras. We think smaller groups would have been better though.
