Abstract
The Geological Survey of Spain (IGME) with de cooperation of the National Park Authorities has started the edition of a new tourist guidebook series: the National Park Geological Guidebooks. This new series intends to answer the growing social demand of geological guides in natural protected areas. The geological guide of the Teide National Park has been the first published volume of this series. A major part of the guide includes the description of main volcanic formations in the park and surrounding areas. A second part is devoted to the description of volcanic regional events and the geological history of the National Park area and the island of Tenerife, within the context of Canary Islands. A third, relevant part of the guide includes a description of some selected geological itineraries. The guide also includes a geological and a geomorphological map of the Park.
