La Alpujarra and the treasures of the Sierra Nevada
Discover the beauty of the Alpujarra valley and of the villages that can be found near the Sierra Nevada. These will truly be unforgettable moments.
La Alpujarra is a 43 miles long valley located at the foot of the Sierra Nevada, whose name comes from the Arabic "al-bugscharra", which means "Land of pastures".
This area is located between the provinces of Granada and Almería, offering spectacular landscapes, dotted with white Berber-style villages that are connected to each other by routes and trails. These will allow you to discover the Alpujarra on foot, especially in spring and autumn, when nature is bursting with colors. The large number of roads and routes that go into the depths of the Alpujarra will keep you distracted, and breathless!
The towns of the Alpujarra of Granada are blessed to have unique characteristics, related to the Berber legacy. You will find these particularities in the white walls of the houses, on the roofs, and in their location on the sides of the hills and mountains. These oddities have attracted the attention of writers and artists over the centuries, such as British author Chris Stewart, who recounts his adventures in Driving Over Lemons.
Just have a trip to Andalusia and self-drive across picturesque villages like Pampaneira, Capileira, Lanjarón, Órgiva or Bubión.
