How to check if the Teide Cable Car is operating | Volcano Teide

Written by Judith | Apr 4, 2018 2:02:24 PM

The Teide Cable Car is one of the topics regarding which we receive most inquiries from those who want to go up Mount Teide to enjoy a day outdoors among the volcanic nature of the Teide National Park.

If you have already used the Cable Car in the past (or you are considering ascending by cable car soon because you are planning to travel around Tenerife and do not want to leave the island without having flown over craters and lava flows at the highest peak in Spain), you know what we are talking about.

We all want to know if the Cable Car is running before embarking on a journey along the beautiful, winding roads of the Teide National Park heading to the Teide Cable Car facilities.

There are several ways to check if the Teide Cable Car is operating and today, we wish to present all of them to you so that you can decide which one to choose to make your inquiries.

Check on Teide Cable Car’s social network profiles if it is open or closed

If you are a fan of social networks and they are your preferred way of seeking information, just access our Facebook or Twitter profile to check if we have announced a closure of the cable car due to adverse weather conditions.

If you choose this way of checking the operational status of the Teide Cable Car, remember that we only notify closures (and the corresponding reopenings, if we resume the service on the same day).

We do not publish any posts when we are operating as usual, so if you cannot see any notification to the contrary, it means that we are open.

A few months ago we have implemented a number of very cool features on our website which are an excellent alternative for those who prefer to seek information by themselves without calling our offices or sending private messages to our social network profiles.
