Sierra Nevada

In the heart of the province

T he Sierra Nevada district is well-communicated both with

I ts towns and villages are in the heart of nature, maintaining

the nearby Granada Costa Tropical and with the province’s

hinterland. The A 92, Andalusia’s arterial dual carriageway which

links up with the rest of the Iberian Península’s road network,

makes access easy from any point of departure. The dual carriage-

way reaches Granada whence radiate the different roads which

cross the district, reaching as far as Pradollano.

The Granada-Motril dual carriageway communicates the coast

with the district, as does the main road which climbs into the Sierra

Nevada.

their traditions with the advantage of being halfway between

Granada and the peaks of the Sierra Nevada.

Rivers and water channels cross the district’s towns where silence

is all around, the ideal place to enjoy peace and quiet and to relax in

a welcoming family atmosphere. These towns are characterised by

the fertile farmlands of La Vega, forming picture postcard scenery

with the ever-present sentinel, the Sierra Nevada. Its history has

always been linked to that of the city of Granada. The origins of

many of these towns date back to when they were Islamic agricul-

tural or silk-producing hamlets dependant on the capital.

The Muslim stamp is clearly visible in the network of irrigation

channels which collect the waters produced by the Spring thaws

on the peaks of the Sierra Nevada, transporting them la Vega, the

wisest way to make full use of them.

Having left Gójar, sur-

scenery, we arrive at Ogí-

birthplace of the famous

Flamenco cantaor Fras-

quito Yerbabuena, Fla-

menco is everywhere, as

its famous festival dem-

onstrates. As we stroll

through its streets we can

admire its heritage and

enjoy its delicious gas-

tronomy.

We then enter the Man-

boroughs. This is an ideal

spot to relax after a busy

day in the mountains or

after the bustle of the city.

La Zubia, stuated between market gardens and irrigation channels,

tal city of Granada and

nestling at the feet of the Si-

erra Nevada are some charming

towns and villages which offer

visitors various services due to

the combination of the facts

that they belong the city’s met-

ropolitan area and yet are in the

very heart of nature.

Only 9 km from Granada is

Dílar, one of the largest bor-

oughs in the province. The dol-

men surrounded by a cromlech,

to be seen near the Casa Rural,

is witness to its long history. The

water lowing from the Sierra

Nevada comes to life in Dílar,

where the babbling of its brooks

and water channels are an irre-

sistible invitation to the visitor to

take a pleasant stroll.

is the irst borough we come to, a typical small village of the Gra-

nada farmlands. Several tracks radiate out from the villages inviting

us to take peaceful strolls along them, through beautiful scenery

without neglecting a visit to its centuries-old Ilex tree or Arab Baths.

Its privileged position, in the very heart of the countryside makes it

a village with one of the highest concentrations of top-level sports-

men and women in Spain.

Cájar, was historically known for its importance as a silk producer.

Visitors are charmed by the tranquillity of both the town itself and

of its incomparable surroundings. Its traditions and gastronomy

make its visitors enjoy a way of life from yesteryear.

Our next stop is Huétor Vega where the mountains and fertile

valley meet. Being on a natural route, it has been inhabited since

Prehistory as the nearby important archaeological remains and the

ancient Camino de los Neveros (Ice Traders’ Route) demonstrate. As

we stroll through it streets, we can admire the products of its rich

hand crafts tradition.

Finally, we arrive in Monachil,

which is formed by three con-

trasting towns: Barrio de la

Vega, Monachil and Pradollano.

Its privileged position in the Si-

erra Nevada foothills make it an ideal activity tourism destination

throughout the year. We recommend a visit to La Cortijuela Botani-

cal Gardens, with its displays of the rich Sierra Nevada lora.
