PNT 34 is a 1.26 km (0.78 mi) one-way trail from the PNT 21 junction to the park boundary on Montaña Limón’s north slope. Allow about 30 minutes; it is graded easy. If you use it as a standalone out-and-back, retracing the route makes the walk about 2.5 km (1.56 mi) and roughly an hour before stops. It works best as a short leg of a longer walk unless you have planned your return.

The slope and treadFrom PNT 21, the mapped line loses nearly 99 m and ends at about 1,999 m elevation.

From PNT 21, the mapped line loses nearly 99 m and ends at about 1,999 m elevation. The trail sits around 2,000 m, so the air is high-mountain even though the walk is brief. At the green route marker, the tread is narrow and rocky, with dark stones, pale grasses and low grey-green scrub. The route follows Montaña Limón’s southern slope; it does not go to the mountain summit.

An old path between valleysPNT 34 follows an old crossing between the valleys of Güímar and La Orotava.

PNT 34 follows an old crossing between the valleys of Güímar and La Orotava. Its appeal is this short highland traverse and its connection to the older route network, rather than a summit or a loop.
