Echeyde (El Pico del Teide) - Tenerife

Teide was a sacred mountain to the native Guanches of Tenerife.

According to legend, Guayota (the devil) kidnapped Magec (the god of light and the sun) and imprisoned him inside the volcano, plunging the world into darkness. This was Guayota's field of vision, both day and night, during his reign.

The Guanches asked their supreme god Achamán for mercy, so Achamán fought Guayota, freed Magec from the bowels of the mountain, and plugged the crater with Guayota. It is said that since then, Guayota has remained locked inside Teide
