LONDON, July 23, 2012-
- Outdoor enthusiasts and athletes are flocking to Tenerife, attracted by
world-class training and activities, good weather and a challenging landscape -
Tenerife is quickly establishing itself as an affordable world-class destination for
active travellers, say leading online holiday specialist dealchecker.co.uk
[http://www.dealchecker.co.uk ].
The largest of the Canary Islands is better known for sangria and sand than sports,
but The Guardian reports that elite athletes including Tour de France cycling stars
Bradley Wiggins and Lance Armstrong have chosen Tenerife as their preferred training
ground, and even credit their success to the experience.
The island’s reliably warm and dry climate makes it ideal for outdoor activities
year-round, with average high temperatures of 17-28 degrees. Tenerife also has strong
transport links with the UK - it is only four hours away by air, and cheap flights to
Tenerife are easy to find [http://www.dealchecker.co.uk/cheap-flights/tenerife.html ]. The
travel comparison tool at dealchecker.co.uk helps holidaymakers find the best deal to get
active in the sunshine this summer.
Besides the weather and easy travel, Tenerife’s big attraction is Mount Teide; this
12,198-foot volcano is the biggest peak in Spain and the Spanish islands. Its steep slopes
provide altitude training for cyclists, footballers and Team GB hopefuls as well as
excellent walking trails and cycle routes for visitors on holiday. Young children and the
less athletic can take a cable car to enjoy incredible views from the summit.

beach, interval training on the steep cobbled streets of La Caleta and swims in the
Atlantic. Health-conscious tourists can enjoy all of these activities without paying for a
gym membership; after buying Tenerife flights, the great outdoors
