Frequently asked questions

Where do I request the summit permit?

On the PNT 10 Telesforo Bravo page on Tenerife ON, in the availability and permits section.

Can I book the permit and the cable car separately?

Yes. Match the cable car time to your PNT 10 slot and leave enough margin to complete the trail.

Do I need another authorization for Montaña Blanca?

Yes. The regulated section of the PNT 07 has its own booking. If you continue to the summit, you must also handle the PNT 10.
