In the green hills overlooking the hot and dusty southern coast, the towns of the southern interior were originally developed as farming land. Reliable sources of fresh water meant that this was one of the earliest areas to be developed following Spanish occupation of the island. Farming remained the principle occupation here from that time until a generation ago, when the mechanization of the industry, impossible on these narrow terraces, led to foreign imports undercutting local prices and left the local economy flagging. Luckily, at about the same time the arid coastal fringes of the island were being developed for sun-seekers from northern Europe, so these farming communities had another way to earn their keep in servicing these new resorts. Administrative towns such as Adeje , Arona and Granadilla have become comparatively wealthy on the back of this industry and have
expanded, as have smaller settlements between, leaving little of the island's southern slopes free of housing. Development only thins higher up, where the pine trees take over around the traditional village of Vilaflor , Spain's highest settlement.
There are no particular attractions here other than the quaint villages themselves, and few restaurants or places to stay. Primarily, the area is of interest for a handful of hikes , many with tremendous views over the coast.
