Boca del Paso
Boca del Paso is a natural balcony in the highlands of Adeje, on southern Tenerife, sitting at just over 930 metres where the land tips out over the head of the Barranco de las Torres. Reached on foot along the waymarked PR-TF 71 (the Camino de Teresme), it trades the resort beaches of Costa Adeje for bare rock, low scrub and wide, sunlit views across the ravines that cut down toward the south-west coast.
Most visitors use it as the start of the short PR-TF 71.1 variant that runs about 1.7 kilometres northwest to the old hamlet of La Quinta, passing centuries of farming heritage—threshing floors, terraces, stone-and-timber water channels—before finishing at the 16th-century Ermita de Santa Margarita. It is a low-effort, high-reward escape into the rural medianías that few sun-seekers ever find.
