Anaga | The Magical North East of Tenerife
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 6 เม.ย. 2022
- We headed off to the far north eastern corner of Tenerife, to the Parque Rural de Anaga (Anaga Rural Park).
This magical area is full of lush forests, dramatic mountains, and a scattering of fascinating houses and farms perched on cliff sides.

Another fantastic ride, highlights, “ not seen a car or person anywhere” 30 seconds later “apart from that hiker”😁 and of course Monica with “noooo, no more farms “ love it 😊
Monica getting annoyed at your farm obsession is my all time Freddie Dobbs highlight so far 😂 love and appreciate your videos. Keep them coming!
Classic Monika and Freddie, well done chaps best yet I think ☀️😎
Can’t watch at the moment as I’m at work but just wanted to say how much I love your vids Freddie …..my wife isn’t I to motorbikes at all and she loves watching you guys! Keep up the awesome work guys! You are a CLASS ACT! - Peace from Oregon
I’m so happy to hear you both enjoy the channel!
And thank you so much for the support, it’s really appreciated🙂🤜🏼🤛🏼🇺🇸
FANTASTILICIOUS FREDDIE..🤩 !!!
It reminds me of similar place in my country, The Dzuko Valley, Nagaland in northeast of India.🙂
Live Long N Prosper 🖖
I spent all my childhood in Los Roques, with no houses just the apartments you show at the begining, i miss it
Monika and Freddie, I’m loving how you’re showing us all parts of Tenerife and the life of those in Tenerife.
This is my favorite video yet. I’m from the Appalachian mountain region of Tennessee/ S.W. Virginia,this reminds me so much of home. Now live in Nashville area of Middle Tennessee. I really love mountain passes like this. They can be a challenge to learn to ride on, if you didn’t grow up driving on them. Be safe, and hello from the U.S.
Wow just realised i stopped in the very same place on my Sunday ride, ended up sitting on a bench at the bottom next to the ocean watching the waves roll in awesome 😆
Just had this pop up on my recommended, just come back from Tenerife, but never been to that area, it is beautiful, what a stunning place. I found this video great to watch not just for the scenery, but the info you gave too, i subscribed :D
Awesome video and awesome content can’t wait for the next video Thank’s Freddie and Monika
Very nice Video.. I stay 2014 and 2017 for 2 Weeks in Puerto de la Cruz.. It's a famous Island.. I drive with a car 1800 km in 14 Days. The Anaga Mountain are spectacular..
Wonderful film. Some stunning views. I love how the choice of soundtrack always fits the footage perfectly. Laughed out loud at Monika saying “ Oh my God not another farm.” Fantastic. Thanks guys.
This vlog in our opinion is one of the best you have ever produced Freddie and Monica , thank you so much for showing us the unseen parts of the island we love.
This could be a professional TV broadcast programme and that is a compliment of Monica’s Skills. We watch many Vloggers especially in Tenerife and your extensive homework done on these videos really shows. Thank you.
You’ve made my day, thank you for the very kind words, Raymundo (from both Monika and I)🙂
Thanks.....beautiful.... from Tenerife.
Another fantastic video! Thank you so much ch for doing this. And it was a special treat to see the lovely Monika😁. You two look like movie stars! I will probably never visit Tenerife so I appreciate these videos! Oh, and my wife does as well.
That’s very kind of you to say so, thank you Dan🙂
Love your videos Freddie. They definitely have that "je ne sais quois" going on, and a different style than the rest
the struggle is real ........i love the bit where you were trying to park the bike and it wouldnt lean.
It was so annoying- it took me so so long to find a safe surface!😆
Things like this are why some choose to travel on two wheels.
What a treat, thank you giving us the lesser known views of Tenerife that are definitely worth seeing. 👍
This looks like a brilliant trip from the dry south and on a Bonnie.
Freddie and Monica, I usually never leave comment on vlogs or any online platforms, but I couldn’t help it! I’ve been following you from the trip from England to Tenerife and it’s been an amazing experience. No other vlog has fascinated me so much, truly. Yes I am a huge motorcycle fan boy and own a Royal Enfield Thunderbird and like your Bonnie, but that is not the main reason I watch your vids. I can’t explain it, but I think it’s the feeling of travelling with you and seeing places from the first person perspective that makes me glued to your channel. And of course Freddie, your presentation is amazing, your language is beautiful, and spontaneity of speaking, your taste of subjects and way of thinking is unique. And most of all, Monica’s camera work - it makes you almost feel the wind blowing on my face as if I am riding or standing, looking at those tranquil places in Tenerife. Lots of love from Trivandrum, Kerala, India
Thank you so much for taking the time to write this, Jacob! Monika and ai both read this and it means a huge amount!🙂
Sending all our best over to India!🙂👋🏻🇮🇳
Simply great videos! Thank You both!! 🙏
I love Anaga...my friend was sick as a dog with all the winding roads and the altitude lol.....thanks for all your videos ... I hope lots of people watch them because you open up the beauty of our lovely island...
I also get sick about 20% of the time in the mountains here (even on a bike a couple if times, too!), so I definitely feel your friend’s pain😆🤢
Another fantastic video, looking forward to the next one!
Great Video, as always! Thank you Freddie!
Superb video, thank you.
That was an eye opener of an episode
Thanks Freddie & Monica looks amazing!🤘😎
Excellent as always Freddie. Stunning scenery in Tenerife, such a beautifully diverse island.
Thanks! Amazing. 24:30 lol......the struggle is real!
Maravilloso video. Lugar realmente mágico. Un saludo y gracias.
Great views. Food is always tempting...
Wow, you’re both having such a great time and it’s nice to be able to go along for the ride. Another very enjoyable video sprinkled with humour 👍
Your music selection, as always, brilliant.
Beautiful day out and so much greenery, fantastic part of the island, thanks Freddie and Monica
Wow so beautiful.
Nice one Freddie and Monika, beautiful area....
Very enjoyable. Great video. Looking forward to seeing your next video Ian 👍🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Brilliant video Freddie 👌
Stunning scenery. You are a very lucky man, living the dream.👍😃
What a stunning spot, the views are incredible. Thank you for showing another dimension to Tenerife, excellent work guys. 👍
Beautiful place, elegantly filmed and edited, music so apt
Great video as always.
Fantastic vlog as always
Hi, magic and amazing , all the way . Thank you both for the ride through the mountains . Take care Freddie and Monika .
It is called Terraced farming. Used a lot in India and East and south east Aisia as well as in the Mediteranian basi. Could feel Monica's pain at around 10:09mins. Beautiful landscape.
another excellent video..thanks to both of you for allowing me to live vicariously through you....totally enjoy your adventures...oh..lol..no more farms..LOLOL
Thanks Kevin🙂
Luckily I now juuuuust about know when to stop talking about farms when Monika’s around😆
@@FreddieDobbs LOL..ya...was funny how she was pleading with you...LOL
Love your vlogs. So much passion . Just fabulous.
I've just come back from Tenerife, although your videos are 10 months old, really enjoyed, like living my trip again. Went to many of the same places and agree that the North is much nicer than the south.
Great work Freddie and Monica I wish I was there!
Amazing ride and guided tour! Thanks for sharing.
Appreciate it Jason🙂🙌🏻
I'm from Gran Canaria. I left many years ago, but this bring back good memories as it's a very similar landscape as Tenerife. I live in the UK now (seems we have swapped places!) and your videos remind me of my younger days riding my first bike, a Honda NX 250, along the mountain roads of my island.
Out of curiosity, do you ever use heated gloves when you go up in the mountains (it doesn't seem like your bonnie has heated grips)? Those didn't even exist back in my early motorcycling days, but as you have experienced I remember what a massive temperature difference you could get from the ocean level to the mountains. Or do you find cold not to be as much of an issue for your hands?
By the way, you should make your way to Gran Canaria if you haven't done it yet. Monica will love it. Loads of little farms built in precarious spots! 😉
Fantastic, glad this can bring back some memories, Jorge- we have switched places!🇬🇧🇪🇸
I don’t have heated gloves or grips, I think I’m so used to English weather that so long as it’s above 8 degrees, I’d never use them, so Tenerife’s a dream
You seem to have knack for finding very picturesque places on Tenerife - note Monika, not necessarily containing farms or anything agricultural like that - but interesting side roads that are rarely visited. Inevitably they have a church and fortuitously a nice cafe with a view. Casa Santiago fits the bill...
One of the best 'exploration' filming you have done! Very nice camerawork Monica. We are hoping to visit Tenerife this year so useful to know it is so diverse with many beautiful areas to see.
Loving the videos Freddie and Monika
Today's video was amazing!
Its an amazing place, and often never ventured out to by visitors.
Pronounced An A Ga , it is one if rhe most spectacular rides with amazing view points…
You did a great job of this Freddie, the Inverness of Tenerife!
Enjoy the videos as they are all unique and intetesting
Awesomeness.
You,re right,,,,, we have been on a Bus trip in that area at the north side of Tenerife,and it is beautiful ,,,it would be interesting to do a trip by ourselves and se if we can find your ruthe,,,great video 📸
Great vid both. Fantastic to see the ‘real’ Tenerife. Will definitely visit the Anaga area on our next visit, looks amazing. Reminds me of some of the stunning scenery in New Zealand. Now there a trip for you both if you have not been before 🇳🇿
Another great video did make me laugh 😂 don’t stop making them 🥂
Great vlog again Freddie and Monica . Always look forward to logging on and finding your latest one to watch , I’ve been watching you since the beginning and now refer back to your earlier ones to research the clothing that you have reviewed … thanks from here in Cheshire .
Thank you so much for sticking around Paul, it’s hugely appreciated!🙂🙌🏻🙌🏻
Another interesting one Freddie. Just one thing, when watching your videos I keep having buffering problems just with your channel. Does anyone else have this problem.
Perfect evening viewing 😁 cheers Freddie 👌
Thanks Nick!🙂
excellent video Freddie & Monica ....
Thanks very much Mark!🙂🙌🏻
The vlog was very educative Freddie and the background music was awesome 👍👌
Thanks Bhaskar, really glad you enjoyed it!
Que bueno que hayas disfrutado de Anaga Freddie, espero que hayas visitado también el puerto de la cruz
Only found you recently Freddie but man i love you vids, and Tenerife is now on my list of must see places.
Delighted you found the channel, Matthew!🙂
bonito video,la zona 11,42 es el antiguo camino que iba a Taganana
Freddie, you can put the bike in the first gear to get more security on a hill or ferry. It helps everywhere you are scared to drop your bike like a parking brake. :)
From today, I am in the Triumph world as well with a Speed Triple from 2008 in black.
How exciting to see my parents' house in your video, you missed going to Taganana, the area is one of the most spectacular in Tenerife.
No way!😃🏠
We couldn’t decide if we should go left for Taganana, or right, down the dead end road… we went for the dead end road😆
Hey Freddy, thanks for all Your vids. There is a solution with the Cappuccino-problem on the canary Islands. Next time You are on Tenerife (I know You will!) order Cappuccino "the Italian style" .
You almost never get spraycream anymore.
wow !
Beatifully !!!!!! But we demand more Monica !!!!! ;-)
Fantastic…. I’ve ruined my Sunday morning now Freddie as I usually keep these for lazy Sundays with a coffee! Wet and windy here in Blighty make sure you and Monica bring the sun and blue skies back with you in May! Beautiful scenery especially where you had lunch! Great video ride safe guys. Dan 👍🏻😃
I’ll do my best, Dan!🙂☀️
There should a 1990 bike for Sunday’s video🏍👌🏻😉
Great stuff…cheers Freddie 😃
Monika is better than an Insta360 on the bike 👌
Another wonderful video Freddie and Monica. That little lunch spot at the top of the mountain was amazing! But I got to tell you I’m sitting here watching you while drinking Darjeeling tea, and wondering why you drink more coffee than a American truck driver. It’s so much fun to watch you guys and see such a beautiful place.
I do have to be very strict now; two cups a day and that’s it!😆☕️
Great to see this unexpected view of the Island...fab! Nice video as ever 👍. And yes, us owners of tall ADV bikes, (T7 in my case) do sometimes stop on a steep slope and think mmmm, this could be embarrassing!!🤣😳 cheers, Steve
Thanks for confirming this Steve!🙂🏍
I sincerely hope the Tenerife tourist board gives you a few euros mate…. You sell the place exceptionally well…
I was there in feb on motorbike…
Wonderful island.
Great work buddy…
Really appreciate it, thank you!🙂
Great vid again lad and monika's superb editing and camera work. Need to go back again now with maria. Glad to see you got some fab weather again. Anaga really is the gem of tenerife. Need to find that old road you were on mate. Monika enjoy the local veggie stew. Cracking stuff 😁👍
All thanks to you Paul- I was so inspired after our ride😃🤘🏻
@@FreddieDobbs mate your passion and enthusiasm it what's inspiring. just cracking stuff and would love to know where that old road is you found. this little island has so much to offer👍🏍🏍😁
Yeah I to was at work but after dinner just had to resume watching brilliant location like a true adventure, that’s it selling my adventure bike and getting a bony, no will request a company car, sell my car and buy a triumph done. Just got to convince the boss
Hi Freddie, your new home in two months will have to go some to beat Northern Tenerife. Cheers
Ahhhhh won’t it! I honestly have no idea where we’ll be going- it’s so hard try to pick somewhere to follow up from Tenerife
@@FreddieDobbs Slovenia is worth considering.
@@FreddieDobbs summer in Lithuania?
I've not made it yet even after 5 years of being told Lithuania is the best country in the world!!
but I do hope to be there this year for a family trip but only once it's warmed up....
Such a varied island. I only saw the popular part on the way to La Gomera. No point saying anyhting else as I think I have been ghosted by TH-cam.
Comment received! Thank so much!🙂🙌🏻
@@FreddieDobbs Glad to hear it, Freddie. Looking forward to the next video.
Thanks for sharing once again, never been to that part of the island and always wondered about it as I gazed up at the mountain peaks from the Santa Cruz cruise terminal?
Tip... If parking up your bike on a slight slope and you realize it may roll on the side stand then leave it in first gear.
Thanks Lee- 100% i’ll be doing this from now on
Oh visit Anaga. It is wonderful full of magical corners and history, but above all, nature. This mountainous massif together with Adeje and Teno, sign the three oldest mountainous nuclei of Tenerife. Going through "the walls" and not taking a photo is a sin, hehe. I have photos of my bikes there. Another curious corner is Los Catalanes, where the church, which I discovered a year ago, curiously, had never been there. Anaga gives for several videos. Taganana and its beaches cannot be missed. There, part of the presentation teaser of the Honda NT1100 was shot for the whole world. Regards Freddie and Monica
Ooooo I’ll save Los Catalanes, thanks Alexis!🙂
Fascinating re the Honda!
This may be some of the most beautiful vistas and lush places (and interesting riding) of your entire stay thus far. Look at those curvy roads on your phone's GPS map!
Wow! It’s like South America ! Really beautiful- thanks for this Freddie!
I’ve got the humidity outside and the heat in the truck so almost like being there!😂
👍
It does look as i’d imagine South America to look🙂👌🏻
Haha glad to hear it Mihai!😆🚛
I’ve been watching itchy boots and she’s in South America and your right very similar.
Thanks Freddie and Monika we really enjoyed that.
I always pop my bike into gear on a slope so it can't roll or tip over
I’ll definitely do this from now on🙂👌🏻
hahahaha " oh my god no more farms - no more" cries Monika - hahahahaha
I feel stupid , I'm leaning into the curves in my studio chair, that's how good your videos are. When Monika goes Oh My Godd! I'm laughing. I imagine living in a high tech studio secluded in this area, then the volcano thing would have me edgy , but we have the Ukraine in the 21st century. Nowhere is really safe. Tenerife certainly falls into my list of places to live including England, Ireland, Demark, Spain , Estonia , Malta and from Central (where I live) to West Texas .😎
Haha i love this- glad you’re leaning along with us!😃🏍🤘🏻
That is a brilliantly eclectic list of countries- I love this👌🏻
Cracking scenery guys and Oh Freddie stop it with the farms Monica is just gonna start muting you : D Cheers !!
I’ve learned my lesson😆
"NO MORE FARMS!" should be in a t-shirt. Literally laughed out loud. But truth be told, whenever we travel I also geek out on the seemingly mundane things and my wife would just roll her eyes and activate her selective hearing while I ramble on. 😅
🤣🤣🤣🤣 I love this; two tees:
“No More Farms”
“No More, No More”
23:44 Bag End!
I wouldn't dare to go to those narrow and sloping roads with my BMW R850R, some times I regret selling my litle Suzuki GS 500, that motorbike used to be so easy to ride in that kind of roads
I can imagine, Andres! I honestly was struggling a bit with my small Bonneville!😳
Great work Freddie and Monica. As a Triumph rider and a golfer how is it you have never happened upon a golf course in Tenerife? ⛳️🏍
Thanks!🙂 There are golf courses here and we ride past them often (one is five mins from our flat) but for some reason I don’t think they’ve ever popped up on our vlogs
friend next time come eat at the melian restaurant is very famous greetings from mercedes
Beautiful video Monica and Freddie. I’m ready to sell the house, pack my bags and ship the motorcycle. 😜
You will not regret it!!😀
Monica more farms please. Let him
Great video, to stop it running down hill just leave it in gear.
