VIEW OF SIERRA NEVADA |
The scenery of Sierra Nevada is the only tall mountain range in Andalusia; in
fact this is where the maximum heights in the Peninsula are found. The presence
of snow is an indication of the altitude, since the relief is not excessively
abrupt, above all in its foothills. The route begins in the Motril pit, where
the ascent of the sierra begins. The contrast is well-known, since it passes
through a climate and subtropical crops to snowy zones. After leaving the
coast, one arrives to Lanjarón, with a profusion of medicinal mineral water
sources and fruit trees.
From here the route penetrates in this region from the southern slope of the
Sierra Nevada with picturesque towns and mountainous scenery, with almond trees
and old leafy trees that according to the seasons vary their appearance.

From the Ragua Pass one passes through the northern slope that offers the
vision of very distinct scenery with Guadix pit. One continues on through
the Huétor Sierra where the Diezma vantage point is, with an excellent
panorama of Sierra Nevada. In this enclave one finds fountains of the
Darro and Fardes rivers.

VIEW OF THE SIERRA OF HUETOR |
From Granada one has new access to Sierra Nevada and rises up to the
Mulhacén through the asphalt highway of major height in Europe.
Accordingly as one ascends, the vegetation becomes more sparse until arriving
to the Alpine tundra, which is very rich in unique species.
