38 walks, scrambles and multi-day traverses<\/p>\n
Guidebook to walks and multi-day treks in the Sierra Nevada mountain range in
\nSpain’s Andalucia. The 38 routes include the highest point of continental
\nSpain, Mulhac\u00e9n, and take in villages including Trev\u00e9lez, Lanjar\u00f3n and
\nCapileira. Includes main ridge traverses, high mountain scrambles and a
\nSpanish Three Peaks challenge.<\/p>\n
This guidebook presents 33 graded walks and 5 high mountain scrambles in the
\nstriking Sierra Nevada, the highest mountain range in mainland Spain and in
\nwestern Europe outside the Alps. Easily accessible from Granada and M\u00e1laga, it
\nis a world of soaring, snow-clad peaks and deep valleys, far removed from the
\ncrowded beaches of the Costa del Sol just two hours away. The routes are
\nspread across the national park, with attractive towns and villages such as
\nTrev\u00e9lez, Lanjar\u00f3n, Hoya de la Mora and Cumbres Verdes serving as potential
\nbases for a walking holiday.<\/p>\n
The walks have been carefully chosen to showcase the Sierra Nevada’s dramatic
\nscenery, taking in barren rocky peaks, lush green valleys, arid badlands and
\ntranquil lakes. From more leisurely outings in the Cumbres Verde area to
\nascents of mainland Spain’s highest summit, Mulhac\u00e9n, there are routes to suit
\na range of abilities, although most require a reasonable degree of fitness,
\nnavigational skill and experience of high mountain terrain. Whilst some are
\nday or half-day walks, others take advantage of the region’s network of
\nmountain shelters or offer an opportunity to wild camp.<\/p>\n
Also included are three longer traverses: ‚Los Tres Picos‘ (the Spanish Three
\nPeaks \u2013 Veleta, Mulhac\u00e9n and Alcazaba), ‚Los Tres Miles‘ Integral (a multi-day
\ntrek covering all the major 3000m peaks in the range) and an overview of the
\n302km Sulayr GR240. The walks can be enjoyed most of the year, however
\nconditions may prove too hot at the peak of summer and extra care and
\nequipment will be required in snow or ice: the descriptions assume summer
\nconditions, but include additional notes for winter walking.<\/p>\n
The guide also includes advice on transport, bases and safety, a tick-list of
\nthe 3000m peaks and a Spanish-English glossary. Information on plants,
\nwildlife and local points of interest will further enhance your visit and the
\nglorious colour photos provide a taste of what the region has to offer. For
\nthose who like their mountains rough and rugged, Walking and Trekking in the
\nSierra Nevada is a perfect companion to escaping the crowds and discovering a
\ndifferent side to Andaluc\u00eda.<\/p>\n
Graded routes of varying difficulty, from easy half-day jaunts and day-trips
\nto tough multi-day treks. High-level routes but also superb lower-level
\nalternatives, including eight walks in the Cumbres Verdes and D\u00edlar Valley
\nhills SE of Granada. Five high mountain scrambles for the more adventurous
\n(graded 2 to 3S). <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
