This review is not particularly for Mascar village, but the whole valley. We have just wound our way through it in our little rental car. Go late in the day so there is less traffic. Just a mind bogglingly beautiful drive. Round every corner another unbelievable sight is revealed. I guess nervous fldrivers won’t enjoy it but what a sheer thing of wonder they would miss. We have travelled over much in the world but this is right up there in terms of absolute magnificence

Beautiful village with excellent views and good local produce. Definitely worth a visit if you are in Tenerife. the roads leading to the place is a bit tight but still easy to drive through if you are careful

The amazing, steep, switchback drive up to this tiny village is fun but meeting other cars and busses on this road is pretty hairy. Parking is limited so car share or go by bus from Santiago del Tiede if possible. We ended up parking at a great little cafe at Mirador Hilda at the top of the valley ( good food, ice creams & drink and reasonable souvenirs sold too) We then walked the track down 1.5km to Masca and back again. Part of it is on the road but then you get to a fantastic wooden walkway. As we arrived at Masca 5 tourist busses were just leaving . Hairy drive back down but we'd seen great views so well worth the extra grey hairs! 😁😄😃

Back after 10 years and a little different. Trails now pre booked and hiking boots required. No problem for us as we came with young family for the views. Driving over early but parking was still one in and one out. Had lovely coffee cakes and returned for dinner at the restaurant with awesome views! Have to say the male guide in the visitor centre was very engaging. What a beautiful spot. Seeing is believing.

Masca valley was incredible!!! Very small village in one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever seen. The road to get over and back is one lane. We opted to take the public bus over and it was worth not having to drive the pass! However, we were stuck on the other side for longer than we intended because the busses only took a number of passengers back and did not come frequently enough for the demand.

This place is stunning from the moment you start your decent down the winding road towards Masca itself. Drive can be a bit hairy so take your time getting round the sharp bends. Plenty of opportunities to stop the car and take photos on the way down. Masca itself is stunning, tiny houses and restaurants nestled between the hills. Would highly recommend a visit here.
