Masca Gorge

Masca Gorge (Spanish: Barranco de Masca) is a narrow valley in the north-west of the island of Tenerife.[1] The gorge is situated within the Teno Massif. The gorge is a popular tourist destination due to its dramatic scenery and unique geology.[2] An eight-kilometre long walking trail begins at Masca village and continues for the length of the gorge[3] to finish at Masca beach (Spanish: Playa de Masca), approximately ten kilometres from the north-west tip of Tenerife.
