Granada

Sierra Nevada: The Sierra Nevada mountains provide Granada with a dramatic, snow-capped backdrop almost year-round, and are great for hiking in summer and for skiing from December to April. The Estación de Esquí Sierra Nevada (Ski Station) is 33km (20 miles) southeast of Granada (tel: 902 708 090; website: www.sierranevadaski.com).

Las Alpujarras
are a set of deep valleys with impossibly picturesque white villages of Moorish origin clinging to the southern slopes of the Sierra Nevada, beginning at Lanjarón, some 45km (28 miles) south of Granada - great for walking or vehicle-touring.

Information is available at the Punto de Información Parque Nacional de Sierra Nevada (tel: 958 763 127) in Pampaneira village.
