From the jagged heights of the Sierra Nevada to forested gorges and citrus groves; on the sierra’s lower slopes is the little-visited Alpujarras region, which has a series of tiny, whitewashed Moorish villages clinging precariously to the side of the hills. These villages provide our hotel accommodation and allow us to sample the delights of simple village life, cheap but good wines and local tapas • The Alpujarras offers something for everyone, the ski slopes of the Sierra Nevada to the Coast is less than an hour. The contrasting views, the rich heritage as well as the open friendliness of the people makes this an ideal location for a walking holiday. Our tours link many of these villages with easy to moderate day tours allowing you to enjoy the area to the full.
