Taking that detour and following the signs, you will find the park after traveling approximately 1 kilometer from the TF-28 detour.
By bus, you must take any line that reaches Los Cristianos station, such as line 112 that leaves from Santa Cruz, or for example lines 471, 473, 477 that pass through Costa Adeje. Once in Los Cristianos, you must take any line that passes through Chayofa, such as line 342, and walk about 1 km. from the stop.
If you do not have a rental car or private vehicle, and you want to save time and avoid walking, the best option is to take a taxi from Los Cristianos or any tourist center in the south, such as Playa Las Américas, Costa Adeje…
