Walking in the Sierra Nevada Mountains

Walking Holidays in Spain

The Sierra Nevada boasts Spain's highest mountains, stunning scenery and hot sunny weather. During the spring and autumn months, the surroundings are particularly beautiful; in Spring the land is carpeted with a vast array of wild flowers and blossom adorns the fruit trees which are dotted around the lower mountain slopes. In autumn the leaves turn golden brown, the fruit ripens and trees are laden with the years harvest.

Summer, when snows have melted, provides the opportunity to experience the best of high mountain walking, and all easily accessible from our bases in Lanjarón or Capileira. Our qualified mountain leaders are looking forward to welcoming you there.

Each programme has been tried and tested by us, but can be adapted to individual fitness, experience and the weather.

High Mountain Walking

A traverse “The Integral” which involves 5 days spent traversing the main 3000m ridge of The Sierra Nevada Mountain Chain and an ascent of Mulhacen at 3400m mainland, Spains highest peak. This week is suitable for reasonably fit committed hill walkers and involves some backpacking. (We may have to change this itinerary at short notice if the weather is not suitable).
