The company behind the Teide Cable Car, which sells cable-car tickets and organises stargazing sessions and guided visits to the Teide Observatory.

Volcano Teide is the brand of Teleférico del Pico del Teide, S.A., the company that runs the cable car that rises from the 2,356 m base station to the 3,555 m of La Rambleta. As well as cable-car tickets, it sells excursions in the Teide National Park, stargazing sessions with Starlight guides and guided visits to the Teide Observatory, at Izaña. Its office is in the centre of Santa Cruz de Tenerife, but all its activities start in the park.

## How it works

Everything is booked on its website, with day and time. On the cable car only the ascent has a fixed time: you must be there 20 minutes beforehand and the descent is in order of arrival. Changes and cancellations are free until 18:00 the day before. If the weather or a breakdown delays your ascent by at least 90 minutes, you can ask for a refund of the tickets you have not used. Stargazing sessions can be changed or cancelled at no cost up to 24 hours beforehand, and are refunded if the sky does not allow observation.

## What it offers at Teide

Teide Cable Car, return from €43 for non-resident adults, every day of the year except 25 December.

Astronomical observation at Teide, an hour with telescopes at the base station, from €35, from age 8.

Daytime guided visit to the Teide Observatory, an hour and a half, from €21, from age 8 and free for ages 8 to 16.

Excursions with transport, sunset with the cable car and summit ascents with a permit, at higher prices.

The cable-car ticket does not include the permit for the summit trail, which is requested separately from the Cabildo on Tenerife ON.
