Discover Adelantado: Winegrowing, Hiking Trails and Play Area

Adelantado offers several specific points of interest for planning your trip: winegrowing, hiking trails, local name history and a renovated inclusive children's play area in the Plaza in El Adelantado. If you are looking for a hotel, these topics can offer different ways to shape your stay. The wine-related references point to named plots and products; for the routes, the most useful details are their course, starting point and stated features.

Winegrowing and local history

At Bodegas Domínguez, ten hectares of vineyards are spread across various plots, including El Adelantado. The Domínguez Collection includes a Castellana wine from Pago del Adelantado; production is limited and depends on the vintage. Grapes from the “El Adelantado” estate were used for the red wine Domínguez 25 Aniversario. To get your bearings, it is worth distinguishing between these references: the Pago is associated with the Castellana wine, the estate with the red wine, and El Adelantado also with one of the vineyard plots. The same name thus appears in different winegrowing contexts.

In the local toponymy of Tacoronte, El Adelantado is associated with the conquistador Alonso Fernández de Lugo. This adds a historical context to the winegrowing references. You can therefore view the place name from two perspectives: as part of local name history and as a name that appears in connection with the Pago, the estate and the vineyard plots.

Hiking trails by route features

The “Montaña de la Atalaya via Camino del Adelantado” hike is rated moderate and is 7.9 km long. It starts at Barranco de San Jerónimo. Another hiking route passes through the districts of Lomo Colorado and El Adelantado along the Camino del Adelantado towards Montaña de la Atalaya. The Tacoronte-El Sauzal I route continues to the junction with the Camino del Adelantado. In Tacoronte and El Sauzal, it follows paths with a tradition of agriculture and livestock farming.

The different details can help you choose: the Montaña hike is described by its length, difficulty level and starting point, while the other two focus on the route through the districts, the direction towards Montaña de la Atalaya, the junction and the traditional character of the paths. This lets you compare the routes by their features, rather than focusing only on the recurring name Camino del Adelantado. Route information and trail conditions may change. Check local access and trail conditions before setting out on a hike.

The renovated children's play area

The children's play area in the Plaza in El Adelantado lies between Adelantado and Juan Pérez streets and the extension of Fray Diego street. Its renovation made it the first inclusive park in Tacoronte. The facilities include several combined adventure play structures, information boards, an adapted swing and a regulation-compliant rubber surface. Its location can be identified by the name of the plaza and the adjacent streets. The facilities may change following future renovations.
