Teide is the highest mountain in Spain, 3718 m above sea level, and approx 7500 m above the floor of the Atlantic Ocean. It's the third largest volcano on Earth on a volcanic ocean island. Tenerife's volcanic formation started to develop itself in the ocean bottom 20-50 million years ago.

The volcano and its surroundings, including the whole of the Las Cañadas caldera, are protected in a national park, the Parque Nacional del Teide. Teide National Park was declared as World Heritage site by the UNESCO in summer 2007.
