About this volcanic site

Boca Tauce opens across the western side of the Teide volcanic complex. Pico Viejo and extensive lava fields dominate the scene, making it a useful place to compare different eruption surfaces and colours.

The viewpoint also sits near a major road junction, making it an easy orientation stop for visitors entering the national park from the south or west.
