Where is Forestal Park?

The Park is located in La Esperanza nature reserve - known as Bosque de la Esperanza - which can be found in the northern part of Tenerife just south of the quiet resort of La Laguna, and west of Santa Cruz de Tenerife [the capital of Tenerife].  The forest does offer wonderful walking trails and is a favourite place for the local people to come an enjoy a picnic or take a walk.  In fact, the forest spreads for a distance of approximately 12km, and is Tenerife's largest pine forest.

Bosque de la Esperanza is famous for the fact that it was here that General Franco met fellow army officers in 1936 in the build up to the Spanish Civil War.  Look for an obelisk on your walks which marks the site of this fateful meeting, known as Las Raices.
