Nitr It is the island of Teide, of extensive golden beaches and coves of black volcanic sand, of world-famous carnivals, of World Heritage cities and also of potatoes, gofio and honey. Oh, Tenerife honey . Although many do not know it, it is one of the only five honeys in our country (along with those from La Alcarria, Granada, Liébana and Villuercas-Ibores) that has its own Protected Designation of Origin . And you don't have to be a botanist to realize that the vegetation on this island is different from that of any other place. In the Canary Islands there are more than five hundred endemisms, and in Tenerife alone , more than one hundred. The most obvious example growing on the slopes of the Forest Crown is the Pinus canariensis , a conifer of large proportions that can measure up to 40 meters in height.
Here, among many others, the emblematic tajinastes, the Teide broom or the apparently fragile Teide violet make their way If from the Forest Crown we continue ascending the road, the almost instantaneous absence of vegetation will indicate that we have exceeded 2,500 meters above sea level. We enter here into the land of fire that Teide once Cell Phone Number List created, a charred place with flows stopped in full progress that show that this landscape was once liquid . But despite the apparent volcanic desolation, there is plant life in this area: they are true survivors of the altitude, extreme temperatures and lack of water. red tajinastes Red tajinastes in the Teide National Park. By Garavitotfe Here, among many others, the emblematic tajinastes, the Teide broom or the apparently fragile Teide violet (Viola cheirantifolia) make their way, a flower that, by the way, only exists in this National Park.
Tenerife honey is different from that of the peninsula To talk about flowers and bees we met up with Juan Carlos Martín, a young man from Tenerife who one day decided to leave his stressful life as a computer scientist to become a professional beekeeper . There are about 700 beekeepers registered in Tenerife who manage approximately 15,000 hives and Juan Carlos is one of them; The young man tells us that beekeeping has been practiced on the island since time immemorial. —Here some towns are called Icod, which is the name that the Guanches gave to the swarms—he informs us. However, the first written records referring to hives, apiaries and beekeeping or waxing activity date back to 1500, that is, already after the Conquest. After taking a track full of potholes, only passable by 4×4, we arrived at the area where their hives are located . You must dress in a full-body suit, mask and thick gloves before entering beekeeping territory. The beekeeper opens the hives one by one to check that everything inside is in order.
