Teide - Above the Clouds
This fascinating phenomenon occurs due to the trade winds that carry moisture from the Atlantic. This moisture condenses at certain altitudes, forming a dense cloud cover. Teide, with its height of 3718 meters, often rises far above these clouds and appears like an island in a sea of clouds. "The sight of Teide rising above the clouds is a sublime spectacle that showcases the infinite power of nature" (Alexander v. Humboldt).
