    Useful video but I think you need to check out the difference between East and West! 👍

      I am going again this year so I am making it a priority to check for the differences between east and west 😄

    I was on Tenerife in november last year. It was fantastic. But the climb up to Teide was tough. Just short of 50k uphill.

      When are you going cycling in Tenerife? 😁

    I would NOT advise to stay in Costa Adeje/ Los Cristianos on the southwest coast as those are touristic hellholes.
    Yes, there are lots of hotels, bars and restaurants but most of the bars are of the "get drunk as fast as possible"-type and so are their customers.
    El Medano is very nice and calm but as you said, it is small and it is somewhat difficult to find a nice place to stay

    • @matsholvoet
      @matsholvoet  6 місяців тому

      Yes also not my preference to stay 😅 but for some the hotels and bars might be what they are looking for 🤷‍♂️

      Plenty of reasonably priced airbnb’s near Los Cristianos and onto the lower slopes of mountains. Area has good bike shops, supermarkets, restaurants, beaches for swimming and bus connections to everywhere makes this my go to area when I visit.

      @littlemichael7 all the things you say are definitely true 😄 but also much more crowded in those areas 😄

    Or on the gas stations ?

    • @matsholvoet
      @matsholvoet  6 місяців тому +1

      I have never found free water on the way up. But at some shops you can buy big bottles of water and you can get water at all the restaurants but not for free.

      Ty. Also if i get stuck on the road
      ? up. how is the transport
      Is uber cheap there or there is better ways ?
      Is it safe for a women to ride alone there ? Ty

    • @matsholvoet
      @matsholvoet  6 місяців тому +1

      Uber is reasonably priced. I can’t recall busses going all the way up the Teide. But they do go to the lower towns.
      You will have some cars passing you on the way up and you will encounter many cyclists. I’m sure you will be helped if needed.
      I always felt safe (cars keep a good distance) and on the roads you are never truely alone since many cyclists will attempt to ride up the Teide.

    It is pronounced El mEdanno. The emphasis reads on the first E.
