The Sierra Nevada in Granada (Spain) is the southernmost alpine mountain range in Europe. Its peaks, of over 3,000m, are covered in snow for more than seven months of the year. However, its Mediterranean climate makes the range habitable up to 1,700m and perfect for hiking. The middle mountain area (1,000-2,000m) is where the best forests can be found, as well as the best views of the snowy peaks and a network of traditional footpaths, which allow us to discover traditional villages and deep valleys.
