Stunning walks through Spain's highest sierra; from Los Berchules to Granada Reiserute

Day 1 Start Berchules.

The tour starts this afternoon at our hotel in Berchules where you will meet your leader and the rest of the group at the main trip brieﬁng. Berchlues is located a 2 hour and 45 minute drive from Malaga Airport.

Day 2 Villages walk in the Contraviesa mountain range with panoramic views of routes for the week ahead.

Today we will take a 20-minute transfer to the top of the Contraviesa mountain range that faces the hotel. We will walk through almond groves and vineyards with the Sierra Nevada as the backdrop, before walking through picturesque villages and enjoying splendid views of the local area. Our guide will point out the walking routes that we will take during the week so that we can get our bearings. We will walk back to the hotel, or for those who prefer to take a transfer, there will be the option to be collected from the town of Cádiar where we stop for a break and some refreshments.

Day 3 Descend into the Guadalfeo Valley, walking from Juviles to Cádiar; return to the hotel via the famous GR7 long-distance footpath.

Today we take a 10-minute transfer to Juviles, where there is a Mozarabic 10th century castle. Take the chance to see abundant local ﬂora and fauna while walking through beautiful landscapes. The route takes us through several traditional towns and villages, such as Lobras and Timar, until we reach Cádiar. We walk back to the hotel via the GR7 long-distance path through the villages of Narila and Alcútar.

Day 4 Walk along Roman paths through La Taha to explore Moorish villages hidden in a deep gorge.

A 20-minute transfer takes us to the beginning of our walk exploring the nature of the Rio Trevelez Valley. We follow a forest trail with great views of the Taha villages before descending along Roman paths into the area of La Taha, a collection of Moorish villages hidden in a deep gorge. Lunch is taken in a bar, where we will be oﬀered a selection of local dishes, as available on the day. Lunch is paid for locally.

Day 5 Scenic walk from the white village of Trevelez (the highest village in Spain at 1550m); return through working cortijos to see how the traditional way of life continues.

Our day starts with a short transfer to the white village of Trevelez – at 1550m, it is the highest village in Spain. The town is particularly famous for the quality of its world-renowned Jamon Serrano. There are shopping opportunities in this larger village and a chance to sample the ham at its source. From here we enjoy a scenic circular walk involving riverside sections and a chance to see the local cowboys handle their herds on the hillsides.

Day 6 Walk through a great variety of landscapes, including Mediterranean scrub and the pine forests of the upper reaches of Bérchules' Río Grande.

This walk will vary with the season and is the longest walk of the week. Normally, we take a circular walk from the hotel to take a deeper look at our home valley. Walking through the village of Bérchules, we follow the old mule trail that goes over the Sierra Nevada before arriving at the Junta de los Ríos - the last stand of the Moorish king, Aben Aboo. This is an amazingly scenic walk with opportunities to see ibex and birds of prey. Points of historical and folkloric interest are encountered along the way as well as paddling possibilities at the river crossing.

Day 7 Free day in Granada and optional visit to the Alhambra Palace (those wishing to visit must purchase a ticket in advance).

Transfer to Granada (just under 2 hours) and free time to explore this wonderful city at your own pace. There is the opportunity to visit one of Europe's most visited historical monuments - the magniﬁcent Alhambra Palace.
