The Tenerife Cabildo has closed the access roads to Teide National Park from La Esperanza (TF-24) and La Orotava (TF-21) due to the presence of ice patches on the road, as the effects of adverse weather conditions will be especially noticeable today.
The cut-off points on the TF-21 are from kilometre 16 (Aguamansa) to 43 (Teleferico), while on the TF-24 it goes from 24 (Los Loros crossing) all the way to the end.
The public is recommended to avoid access to the peak areas of the island or engage in outdoor activities.
The Tenerife Island Emergency Plan (PEIN) was activated yesterday as a precautionary measure due to the declaration of pre-alert for rain, wind and snow in peak areas, by the Government of the Canary Islands, and weather warnings are in force all weekend.
