Spain - Granada and the Sierra Nevada

Spain sightseeing, attractions and online travel guide

Beach, sangria and flamenco are the stereotypical images of Spain, not hitting the slopes! However, from December to April the peaks of the Sierra Nevada are peppered with snow enthusiasts from around the globe. So, grab your skis, boards or boots and head to Spain’s second highest mountain range. The most popular resort within the Sierra Nevada’s is the Estacion de Esqui Sierra with a remarkable 45 runs, 19 lifts and 4 ski schools. If skiing is not your thing, walking and hiking trails are also plentiful. Especially popular is the walk to the Pico del Veleta, the second highest peak. After the sun goes down, you can dance the night away, sample the countries finest tapas or delve into the gypsy history of the lively town of Granada, at the base of the mountain range.
