I need to go to the Crematorium in the North on Tueday. Does anybody know how to get there from the South please?

I believe it's in Santa Cruz inside the cemetary but I'm not sure, could be wrong. Anyway if nobody on here knows if you go to the cemetary they'll direct you.
The cemetary is near the Mercantile Tenerife, just off the south motorway at the end. Go on towards Santa Cruz past the new (well it was new a few years ago!) North motorway connection, then turn off onto the old north motorway connection, it's there on the left but you have to go on up to the roundabout and come back down to enter it.

Previous poster was more or less right, head north up the TF1 until you get the the first Carrefoure, as you come over the brow you will see a Renault and Dacia Garage on the right, get into that slip road, you need to take the 2nd exit from this slip road not the first into the Centro Commercial.
The 2nd one takes you over the motorway bridge on the road heading to Ikea and Al Campo and the TF5.
Keep looking on your left and after about 1/4 - 1/2 km you will see the Crematorium and as said you have to go past to be able to turn round at the roundabout and come back down to it then on your right side.
A word of warning it is quite common for coffins over here to have a glass lid so if you go to put a rose on the coffin be prepared to see the person you are at the cremation of.
I went about two years ago and didn't know this, went to place the rose on the coffin and there was Bill looking back at me.
Gave me a shock and a half.
