It was rocky and deserty with spikey plants. So stout boots, a wide-brimmed sun hat and lots of water are all necessary. Don't forget the sunbloc.

We have always found them invaluable in e.g. Madiera, Majorca,Cyprus. There is one on The Algarve. They do variously graded walks and some car trips.

I done two small volcano cones when I was there a few years ago, the terrain is dry and dusty and more rocky as you gain height.
I done this trip report over on ScottishHills, that'll give you an idea:

If you're hiring a car get one where you take it back with a full tank, we drove all week and never even got it half empty
If doing Teide apply for a permit now although you may be to late? You could always get the last cable cable car up and wait for the guard to go down, nip up to the summit and you'd have to walk down though.
Masca gorge is highly recommended as well
Forget that! Wrong Island
