Know the tour

Embark on a leisurely hiking trip through the charming region of Las Alpujarras. This picturesque area comprises a cluster of traditional white-washed villages. Each village exudes a unique charm, showcasing the harmonious blend of human settlement and nature.

The trails that connect these villages, historically known as “Caminos Reales”, were vital routes before the arrival of motor vehicles. Today, they offer hikers a moderately challenging route. As you walk along these paths, you will be captivated by the stunning natural landscapes, with the majestic Sierra Nevada mountains as a stunning backdrop.

The architecture of the villages reflects the rich medieval Alpujarra heritage, with narrow streets and traditional houses that seem to emerge organically from the hillsides.

This hike offers a peaceful escape, allowing you to immerse yourself in the peaceful atmosphere of the region. The gentle murmur of streams, the rustling of leaves and the distant bells of the village churches create a soothing soundtrack to your journey. It is an ideal setting for those seeking relaxation and a deep connection with nature.

In short, hiking in La Alpujarra is not just a physical journey, but a spiritual experience, where the beauty of nature and the simplicity of village life intertwine seamlessly, offering hikers a memorable and rejuvenating adventure.

This tour is designed for people with an intermediate physical condition and some experience in this type of mountain hike. It is important to use comfortable gear, as well as clothing and footwear suitable for this activity. For those who prefer walking with poles, the guide can provide some. There is also the option of providing a backpack to those who need it.

At the end of the route, approximately at 2:00 pm, you will have the option to recharge your energy at a local restaurant before returning to Granada.
