It occupies much of the mountainous massif located at the north-eastern end of the Island of Tenerife. With an area of 14,419 hectares, this is an area with exceptional natural and cultural treasures, which has landscapes of great harmony and beauty.
Anaga offers a spectacular landscape and great natural diversity as a result of its contours, and due to the existence of different environments which run from the dampest and most rainy in the upper parts down to those with a great deal of sunlight and little rainfall.
This diversity of environments leads to the establishment of a rich and diverse number of species, a range of communities that is home to numerous animal and plant species, with more than 120 local endemic species, some of them extremely rare and close to extinction.
The natural habitats of Anaga include some of the best Canary Islands ecosystems. The laurel forests, the juniper woodlands of Afur or landscapes of spurges from the eastern end of the Massif stand out due to their state of conservation.
