Walking in the Sierra Nevada - A Walker's and Trekk
Cover Paperback - Laminated Edition Second Expand Published 15 Nov 2017
Originally Published 5 Mar 2006 Pages 272 No. Maps 8 No. Photos 50 Dimensions
17.2 x 11.6 x 1.5cm This guidebook presents 33 graded walks and 5 high mountain
scrambles in the striking Sierra Nevada, the highest mountain range in mainland
Spain and in western Europe outside the Alps. Easily accessible from Granada and
Málaga, it is a world of soaring, snow-clad peaks and deep valleys, far removed
from the crowded beaches of the Costa del Sol just two hours away. The routes
are spread across the national park, with attractive towns and villages such as
Trevélez, Lanjarón, Hoya de la Mora and Cumbres Verdes serving as potential
bases for a walking holiday. The walks have been carefully chosen to showcase
the Sierra Nevada's dramatic scenery, taking in barren rocky peaks, lush green
valleys, arid badlands and tranquil lakes. From more leisurely outings in the
Cumbres Verde area to ascents of mainland Spain's highest summit, Mulhacén,
there are routes to suit a range of abilities, although most require a
reasonable degree of fitness, navigational skill and experience of high mountain
terrain. Whilst some are day or half-day walks, others take advantage of the
region's network of mountain shelters or offer an opportunity to wild camp. Also
included are three longer traverses: 'Los Tres Picos' (the Spanish Three Peaks ?
Veleta, Mulhacén and Alcazaba), 'Los Tres Miles' Integral (a multi-day trek
covering all the major 3000m peaks in the range) and an overview of the 302km
Sulayr GR240. The walks can be enjoyed most of the year, however conditions may
prove too hot at the peak of summer and extra care and equipment will be
required in snow or ice: the descriptions assume summer conditions, but include
additional notes for winter walking. The guide also includes advice on
transport, bases and safety, a tick-list of the 3000m peaks and a
Spanish-English glossary. Information on plants, wildlife and local points of
interest will further enhance your visit and the glorious colour photos provide
a taste of what the region has to offer. For those who like their mountains
rough and rugged, Walking and Trekking in the Sierra Nevada is a perfect
companion to escaping the crowds and discovering a different side to Andalucía.
