TITSA prints Sundays and public holidays on one table, so on a public holiday use Sun & holidays. Times are Canary Islands time, the island’s own clock (one hour behind mainland Spain).

                                                                                  The practical part

                                                                                  1. Start at Santa Cruz Intercambiador

                                                                                    Choose line 946 displayed for Taganana or Almáciga after confirming which endpoint suits your plan.

                                                                                    Checked TITSA: Line 946 timetable

                                                                                    The published route passes San Andrés and Cruce El Bailadero, then Taganana, with Almáciga as the later endpoint.

                                                                                    Checked TITSA: Line 946 timetable

                                                                                    Checked TITSA: Line 946 timetable

                                                                                  Checked TITSA: Line 946 timetable WebTenerife: Taganana

                                                                                  Check whether your return 946 starts at Taganana or Almáciga before you walk beyond the village, and confirm its displayed direction for Santa Cruz; TITSA publishes separate tables by day.

                                                                                  Checked TITSA: Line 946 timetable

Keep the current timetable available because TITSA publishes separate day-specific tables.

                                                                                  See the times
