Beautiful walks through Spain's highest sierra from Moorish Los Berchules

Village in the Sierra Nevada

The Sierra Nevada is a dramatically rich Natural Park, which towers over southern Spain as the second highest mountain range in Europe. With fertile valleys of chestnut forests and high moorlands covered in lavender and broom, we are rewarded with some of the finest walking in southern Spain. On our journey through picturesque villages, we learn of their fascinating Roman and Moorish influences and the exceptionally diverse plant, bird and animal species, such as bee-eaters and eagles. Throughout the week, we savour many different amazing meals from the home-cooked evening meals at the hotel, to eating oranges straight from the tree, to our wonderful final tapas lunch where we can experience the renowned local 'Jamon Serrano' (cured mountain ham). The free day provides the opportunity to explore the fascinating Moorish city of Granada or simply relax by the hotel's swimming pool.
