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 carriageway 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. JAÉN MADRID CÓRDOBA MÁLAGA SEVILLA MURCIA ALMERÍA In the heart of the province I ts towns and villages are in the heart of nature, maintaining 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 agricultural 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. 4 5 COSTA TROPICAL Sierra Nevada ski resort (Pradollano) Part of the old quarter of Güejar Sierra Granada N Sierra Nevada Between the Sierra ear to the monumental city of Granada and nestling at the feet of the Sierra 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 metropolitan area and yet are in the very heart of nature. 6 1 2 3 4 5 and the Alhambra Los Cahorros bridge (Monachil) Panoramic view of Dílar Ogíjares Gojar town hall and church Mudéjar church in La Zubia 3 4 Only 9 km from Granada is Dílar, one of the largest boroughs in the province. The dolmen surrounded by a cromlech, to be seen near the Casa Rural, is witness to its long history. The water flowing from the Sierra Nevada comes to life in Dílar, where the babbling of its brooks and water channels are an irresistible invitation to the visitor to take a pleasant stroll. 2 Having left Gójar, surrounded by beautiful scenery, we arrive at Ogíjares. These lands are the birthplace of the famous Flamenco cantaor Frasquito Yerbabuena, Flamenco is everywhere, as its famous festival demonstrates. As we stroll through its streets we can admire its heritage and enjoy its delicious gastronomy. We then enter the Mancomunidad de Municipios del Río Monachil joint 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, 1 5 5 7 Granada Sierra Nevada Between the Sierra and the Alhambra is the first borough we come to, a typical small village of the Granada 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 sportsmen 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. 8 Finally, we arrive in Monachil, which is formed by three contrasting towns: Barrio de la Vega, Monachil and Pradollano. Its privileged position in the Si- 1 2 3 2 erra Nevada foothills make it an ideal activity tourism destination throughout the year. We recommend a visit to La Cortijuela Botanical Gardens, with its displays of the rich Sierra Nevada flora. La Encarnación church in Monachil Nuestra Señora de los Dolores church in Cájar Huétor Vega 1 3 9 Granada W Sierra Nevada To the east e begin this route in Cenes de la Vega, in the heart of the fertile Vega Granadina plain and on the banks of the Genil river which irrigates its farmland. Its location between Granada and the Sierra Nevada, between the valleys and the mountains, makes it the ideal spot to take idyllic strolls or to practise activity tourism. Continuing on our way, we arrive in Dúdar, on the banks of Aguas Blancas river. Following its course, surrounded by beauty spots, we reach Quéntar, whose name tells us of its Islamic origins: Qariat Quentar. Like nearby Granada, it fell to the Christians in 1492. Its Morisco population remained until their expulsion following the Alpujarra Rebellion when Quéntar sheltered rebellious Moriscos, for which the town was punished at the hands of John of Austria’s troops. Not far away is the Quéntar reservoir, attractive not only for its 1 Güejar Sierra and beauty, but also for the range of serCanales reservoir vices on offer there. 2 Dúdar in autumn Returning to the Genil, we set out for Pinos Genil, the last town before 10 1 of Granada 2 the climb to the peaks of the Sierra Nevada. Which is intimately linked to its river which divides it into two parts. The surrounding country takes on a special beauty when the almond trees burst into flower and during the Spring thaws when the Canales reservoir reaches its full glory. 11 Granada Sierra Nevada To the east 12 We recommend a stroll, following the course of the Genil, to the reservoir from the Barrio del Zaidín quarter, situated in the upper part of the town. Güéjar Sierra is the last town on our route. Its name speaks of its Muslim origins when Qaryat Walyar was a silkproducing town. Remains of one of its two Islamic fortesses can still be seen on Cerro del Castillejo hill. We recommend a visit to its Renaissance church, boasting a beautiful Mudejar coffered ceiling as well as visiting the Fuente de los Dieciséis Caños (sixteen-spout) fountain, the Fuente de la Plaza fountain and the former public laundry, not to mention the former tram station, Estación del Antiguo Tranvía de la Sierra. 1 2 3 4 of Granada Quéntar Panoramic view of Cenes de la Vega Pinos Genil Street with flowers in Güejar Sierra 3 1 2 4 This is scenery dominated by steep slopes and streams, elements which make it an ideal spot for lovers of mountain sports. Indeed, there are limitless possibilities on offer: hiking, horse riding, and mountian biking, potholing, paragliding, rock climbing etc. Moreover, its delicious gastronomy will delight lovers of good food. It is recommended the visit to Maitena, to enjoy, in summer, the “natural pools”, such as a trip to El Chacón, in the road of Güéjar Sierra to the Vereda de la Estrella, a region shaded by cherry trees from where departs many roads. 13 Granada Sierra Nevada Sierra Nevada, the roof T 14 he Sierra Nevada mountain range includes the highest peaks in the Iberian Peninsula: Mulhacén (3,482 m. above sea level) 1 and Veleta (3,394 m.). Because of its rich and varied vegetation, this area was declared a Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO in 1986, a Nature Park in 1989, and finally a National Park in 1999. Sierra Nevada has twenty peaks that are over 3.000 metres above sea level. The ski lifts at the resort can carry 50,000 skiers per hour and 103 runs provide an area of 3.5 million square metres for skiing. The Sierra Nevada mountain range, with its National and Nature Park, allows the practice of adventure tourism as well as skiing. Many paths and routes, such as the GR-7 route, provide a broad range of possibilities. In this guide we include some of the paths marked by the Andalusian Regional Ministry of the Environment. Sulayr — the mountain of the sun for the Moors — gives its name to a long-distance path (GR-240) that runs for 300 kilometres around the mid-level mountains of the Sierra Nevada. Four of its 19 sections fall within the area covered by this guide. For the nine paths described below we give technical information to help you to make the best choice, including MIDE. Here is an explanation of the meaning of the various degrees of the four symbols used. Dawn on Veleta of the Iberian Peninsula M.I.D.E.

After 1.5 km, we reach an irrigation pond, where we leave the farmed areas to follow a track that takes us up to a pine wood. The terrain soon changes to dolomite sandstone and we can see how the vegetation around us adapts to the different type of soil. Still climbing, we reach the Cabreros col, where, next to the ruins of an old farmhouse, broad plains were once used to grow cereal crops. We then follow a steep track through the gorse scrub, until reaching a final hill that takes us to the Cerro de la Silleta, at an altitude of 1,520 m. 3 By this point we have steadily climbed 560 m, so we can take a well-deserved rest to gather our strength and enjoy the splendid views. We can see several three-thousand-metre peaks: Veleta (3,396 m), Tajos de la Virgen (3,342– 3,179 m), Cartujo (3,150 m) and the Caballo (3,011 m), extending out to the Alpujarra district. 4 2 0 1 km 2 km 3 km SCALE 1:40.000 17 Granada Trails by Sierra Nevada Path: La Silleta de Padul We walk on eastwards along the Sierra del Manar. At various points along the way, lookout points reveal beautiful mountain landscapes, such as those of the nearby peaks of Corazón de la Sandía (1,872 m) or Trevenque (2,083 m), as well as the Alayos de Dílar, Granada’s Vega and the Lecrín valley. We’ve been following the watershed of the Lecrín valley to reach the Mala Mujer pass, after which we return to the slopes of the river Dílar. 18 Path: Canal de la Espartera Arenales de Trevenque W e arrive at the Fuente del Hervidero from La Zubia on the E-902 road. Our route sets off from a col above the Espartera Canal with a fine lookout point, from where we can see Los Alayos, Trevenque or Boca de la Pescá, all mid-mountain peaks of dolomite formations. 1.800 m Cuerda Trevenque lookout point 1.700 m Bco. de Aguas Blanquillas Refugio Rosales 1.600 m Final climbs up to the Silleta de Padul We leave the path temporarily to follow a broad forest track, that we will have to leave later on, which, after 700 m, takes us to the “Ermita Vieja”, or “Old Hermitage”, so called because until 1796 it housed the image of the Virgin of the Snows that is currently kept in the new hermitage, Ermita Nueva. We can replenish our fresh water supplies here at the fountain next to a cistern. Returning to the path, we head down in a north-easterly direction among scrubland and reforested pines, along a track that takes us to a broad dry river. We cross its sandy bed for 500 m and get ready for the final effort on the route: climbing up to the Poca Leña hill. Once again we can see extensive fields of crops in Dílar’s Vega, with the sight of the Ermita Nueva in the background showing us the way back, walking on the area’s clayey soils. 1.500 m Dílar river Los Alayos lookout 1.400 m point 1.300 m 1 Fin de ruta 2 3 4 5 6 1 km 2 km 3 km 4 km 5 km 6 km 7 km 8 km 9 km 10 km 11 km 12 km M.I.D.E.

The path takes us to a new lookout point opposite the Trevenque Peak (2,083 m)) and stark landscape of sandstone and steep hillsides. Walking along the dry bed of the Búho gorge, where it is easy to see a chough or kestrel flying, we climb up to an altitude of 1,700 m and a much leafier landscape. We head down through a pine forest which gets steadily thicker, with a notable increase in humidity as we reach the crossing with the forest track up to the Chaquetas col. Here we can refresh ourselves in the waters of the Aguas Blanquillas gorge, where we turn 180º to the right towards the Rosales shelter 1 kilometre farther on. Crossing the Mala Mujer pass 19 Granada Trails by Sierra Nevada Path: Canal de la Espartera - Arenales de Trevenque Take a rest at the shelter, enjoy the geological spectacle of the Alayos de Dílar, and refill your water bottles.

The steady descent takes us down to the course of the river Dílar, with its exuberant gallery vegetation of poplars, willows, brambles, cane, gorse, wild rose and barberry bushes. Next to the river you will see green rocks known as serpentine marble, carried down from an abandoned quarry. Once polished, serpentine marble can be used as an ornamental stone that has been highly valued for monumental masonry throughout history. Leaving the river behind as it rushes down the gorge, our path continues, first crossing the forest track we mentioned that goes up to the Chaquetas col and then the Búho gorge at a lower level than when we crossed it earlier. Mountain goats and kestrels can often be seen here. 3 We continue to climb up past dolomite landscapes once more, facing the Boca de la Pescá, until we reach the Sevilla farmhouse back near our starting point. 5 0 1 km 2 km 3 km SCALE 1:40.000 21 Granada Trails by Sierra Nevada Path: A s with the previous trail, we set out from the Fuente del Hervidero area, which can be reached from La Zubia via the E-902 road. The lookout point offers spectacular views of the entire western mid-mountain area of the Sierra Nevada. We start our walk here along the Cortijuela track. To our left, on the other side of the gorge, we can see part of the route that we’ll be following. After about 1 km we leave the main track to take another that runs down to our left to cross the Huenes stream into a forest of reforested pine species.

The trail continues around the Cerro Huenes massif as a pleasant walk with fine views of Granada’s Vega to the west and the Cerro de la Boca de la Pescá peak and Silleta de Padul to the south. In the distance we can see the silhouettes of the Sierra de Almijara and Sierra de Tejeda. The track takes a 90º turn to cross the Lobo gorge, and after a brief climb we reach a natural lookout point. We then skirt around the Huenes peak on our right and the path soon changes direction to head East. About 90 minutes after setting off, we reach the Barrancón Forestal de Fuente Fría, an ideal place for a rest. 23 Granada Path: Cerro Huenes 24 Continuing on, we follow a path, abandoning the track only temporarily, returning to it at a sharp curve below Fuente Fría. We follow the track for 500 metres before turning off to the right along a path that takes us up to some watering halts and then, a few minutes later, reaches the Llanada del Siete Ojos bridge Chopo. From here, we can see the Cerro del Tamboril to our right and in front of us the Carne peak with the Trevenque peak behind. To our left, in the distance, we can see several three-thousand-metre peaks, including Veleta and El Caballo. Following the path southwards, we skirt around the west face of the Carne peak among pine trees, and start our descent through the Majadillas gorge. Anywhere in this area it is easy to see animal tracks made by foxes, genets, badgers or wild boars, and you may even see a mountain goat or golden eagle. A steep path takes us down to the Siete Ojos bridge, where we link up with the main track that takes us westwards back to our starting point.

This route is one of the ones that goes deepest into the heart of the Sierra, climbing up to an altitude of 2,200 m at the San Francisco refuge, which was built as a hostel in the early twentieth century by a small group of Granada mountaineers known as “Diez Amigos Limited”. La coincidence at the beginning of the route with the road down to Güejar Sierra by the Hotel del Duque requires some caution, but we’ll soon turn off to the right along forest tracks and paths with lovely views of the Calar de Güejar Sierra. Steadily climbing, after a few kilometres we’ll be at nearly 1,900 m above sea level, near the Tajos gorge, and most of the rest of the route continues at this level. Our relaxed, comfortable hike runs along a natural balcony above and parallel to the Genil valley, with splendid views of several threethousand-metre mountains, such as the Alcazaba (3,364 m), Puntal de Bacares (3,143 m), Atalaya (3,139 m) Tajos Negros de Covatillas and Picón de Jérez (3,088 m). We continue for quite a long stretch through reforested pines into the valley, crossing gorges including the Ánimas gorge, which when 25 Granada Trails by Sierra Nevada Path: the snow melts offers an impressive spectacle of wild water. Carrying on eastwards at the same level, we reach the spectacular Peña del Perro, jutting out towards the Peña de San Juan. The cutting in which the bluff lies means we must be careful when approaching the edge to look at the old serpentine-marble quarries in the Barranco de San Juan and the ruins of an old farmhouse.

Leaving the Paco Luna farmhouse behind us, we enter another pine wood which, in the final climb, takes us up to the Campos de Otero, a broad plain where the San Francisco refuge is located, the end of our route. The refuge conserves part of the one built with great difficulty in 1915 next to what was then known as the Peña de la Mojonera, and is now called Peñones de Francisco y Campos de Otero in honour of Don Benito del Campo y Otero, the province’s civil governor at the time. The refuge is now a landmark in honour of the citizens of Granada who so loved the Sierra Nevada in the early twentieth century. 27 Granada Trails by Sierra Nevada Path: Vereda de T La Estrella M.I.D.E.

At the beginning (1) a steep hill quickly raises our temperature as we go deeper into the valley, with its abundant ash-, mapleand chestnut-trees, dyer’s oaks and common oaks. At the beginning the route follows a broad, gently rising track. We will soon see by the edge of the path, on a low wall, an old chestnut-tree nicknamed “El Abuelo” (the old man). After about an hour, we reach the confluence of the river Vadillo (2), where the landscape splits into two narrow valleys. Another path begins here, which first goes down to the river and then climbs up the “Cuesta de los Presidiarios” (prisoners’ hill), which also forms part of section 18 of the Sulayr trail. We, however, will turn right at this point, continuing on the same path into the heart of the Sierra Nevada. We now walk along a broad path that was used decades ago to carry copper ore from the Provadora, Estrella and Justicia mines. 2 km 3 km 29 Granada 30 Trails by Sierra Nevada Path: Vereda de La Estrella San Jerónimo - La Cortijuela - Sulayr 1 The imposing bulk of the Alcazaba and Mulhacén now appear before us, at a point known as the “Viso de las Nortes”. After passing by the mines, the path descends to cross the bridge over the river Guarnón (3), which tumbles down from the Corral del Veleta, to meet the Genil. From here on the path narrows as we approach the fast-flowing waters of the Genil. From here on the path is known as “Camino del Real”. After passing close to the Justicia mine, another stretch takes us to the confluence of the four gorges, the end of the route in the area known as (4). If you wish you can visit the Cueva Secreta (“secret cave”; a natural refuge used by goatherds) which is a further thirty minutes’ walk away. It is also possible to make the return trip along a much harder path that crosses the river and then goes up the Lucía gorge and then the Aceral and Calvario gorges, to link with El Vadillo at the Cuesta de los Presidiarios. As this path is more difficult, poorly signposted and quite risky, we advise going back the same way we you came. he first section of the Sulayr trail, which runs around the entire Sierra Nevada, begins at kilometre point 22 on the road up to the Sierra, behind the Hotel Don José, to follow the river Monachil. T For the first 6 km, the route runs along a broad, seldom-used forest track, which runs down to the river Monachil. At the beginning of this part of the route we briefly climb through various different species of pine trees, with an abundance of aromatic plants — sage, 1 31 2 Bridge over the river Guarnón 3 4 5 Climb up the upper reaches of the river Genil, with the Alcazaba (3366 m) and Mulhacén (3478 m) peaks in the background 0 1 km 2 km SCALE 1:40.000 Granada Trails by Sierra Nevada San Jerónimo - La Cortijuela M.I.D.E.

Her ewe cross what is known as the “Camino de los Neveros” (snowmen’s path), so called because it was used for many centuries to supply the city of Granada with ice. This site also marks the watershed between the rivers Genil and Monachil. Sendero Sulayr - section 1 Leaving the lookout point and continuing to descend, we pass by the Diéchar farmhouse and reach the river Monachil. Here the track we have been following turns right towards Purche and Monachil. We leave this track here and follow a path that passes by a livestock corral and crosses the river to continue along the riverbank. Farther on, passing over a chain, on the right we will see a spring where we can refill our water bottles. We continue walking between sloes, maples, gorse, etc, until we reach the transition area between the Sierra Nevada’s limestone and siliceous areas, at the Mojonera gorge. Climbing up, we see an increasing number of oak trees growing on the free-range pasture, and farther on we turn around a sharp curve to leave the Mojonera gorge behind and enter the Manuel gorge. Leaving the last oak trees behind us, we reach the crossing with the path that runs from the Sierra Nevada ski resort. The route continues to the right, passing through pasture until reaching the Cerro del Mirador col. The city of Granada lies at our feet, with the high peaks of the Sierra Nevada to our right. As we walk down, on both sides of our path we can see many aromatic plants, thorny shrubs and fine wild pine trees. On arrival at the Matas Verdes col we leave the Monachil valley and link up with the Cerro Huenes valley. Descending among pine tress, we can see the pyramid-shaped peak of the Cerro del Trevenque, and after a short section we reach the Casa Forestal de la Cortijuela, at the head of the Huenes stream. The botanical garden here features all the flora found on these sections of the Sulayr. From here on we can opt to carry on along section 2 of the Sulayr trail or retrace our footsteps. We know walk gently downhill for a long stretch. Passing the Manolete gorge and Tajo del Zorro, a track on our left leads to the San Jerónimo convent, although we will be turning right, to arrive 500 m farther on at a natural lookout point over the river Monachil valley, which runs down from the 3,394 m of Veleta to the gulley at Los Cahorros. From here we can clearly devise the two different rock formations of the Sierra Nevada massif. Path among the broom community, with Granada’s Vega in the background 33 Granada Trails by Sierra Nevada Cortijuela - Rinconada de Nigüelas T Sendero Sulayr - section 2 his interesting section runs along the slopes of the Dílar, Dúrcal and Torrente rivers. You can clearly see how the steady abandonment of farming activities has encouraged the recovery of such key sites as the oak forest of the Dehesa del Dílar, the holm-oak forest of the river Dúrcal valley and the broom community of Peñamadura. 1 Our route begins by climbing up a forest track for several kilometres, passing alongside huge, twisted wild pines and the occasional yew. At a U-bend we leave the sharp silhouette of the Trevenque (2079 m.), which is popular with mountaineers, on our right, continuing up to the Martín col, the watershed between the basins of the Monachil and Dílar rivers. 2 On the other side of the valley we can see the oak forest of the Dehesa as its goes down towards the farmhouses of the Chaqueta col, a traditional livestock settlement where we can replenish our water supplies. 34 Rinconada de Nigüelas 2.200 m 2.100 m 35 Cruz de Contadero 2.000 m 1.900 m La Cortijuela 1.800 m Dílar river 3 4 Dúrcal river 1.700 m 1 2 2 km 4 km 3 6 km M.I.D.E.

A few minutes later we reach the river Dílar, where we can stop to see the scaled dike to facilitate the passage of trout. Crossing the river over a bridge, we walk for a new metres parallel to the river before starting the steep climb up the Dehesa de Dílar. After a short while, at a fork, we take the left path that keeps on climbing. The route constantly zigzags, passing by the ruins of old farmhouses and abandoned huts that have been replaced by broom and oak trees. We continue our climb, looking back occasionally to enjoy the views. At an altitude of 1,980 m, the path turns to the right, at first levelling out and then going down around the Loma de Peñamadura. The Alayos de Dílar appear before us at the same height, with the silhouette of the Cerro del Trevenque behind, and Granada’s Vega off in the distance. 36 We now leave the river Dílar valley to enter the basin of the river Dúrcal, entering the Lecrín Valley district and the southern slopes of the Sierra Nevada. We follow a path clinging to the rock and overlooking the river Dúrcal, at the site known as Cruz del Contadero. From here we can see impressive cuttings such as the Buitreras, caused by centuries of erosion by the river, and opposite, the impressive bulk of the Cerro del Caballo looming over us at a height of over 3000 m. We walk down through an area where wild boar and foxes are commonly found and arrive in a holm-oak forest with large cuttings, continuing on down along a stepped path cut in the rock. Trails by Sierra Nevada Sendero Sulayr - section 2 tinuously until the end of the route. Along the way we can see at our feet willows, gorse, etc., and after a while we will pass the Raya de la Dehesa and enter the Sierra Nevada Nature Park. After following the track for 5 km, we ignore a junction on Sulayr trail near Martín col the right that goes down to Nigüelas and take the one on the left, continuing south to the Fuente Fría area; farther down, the river Torrente runs down to Nigüelas. This is a strategic point that is very popular with mountaineers and crosscountry skiers. We continue to climb, reaching the Hechos irrigation channel and the ruins of the Echevarría farmhouse. Here the track zigzags up steep slopes around the Loma de los Tres Mojones. We have now reached the end of the route. From here on the next sections of the Sulayr trail run along the southern slopes of the Sierra Nevada, with views of the Mediterranean. We can now choose between carrying on along the next section, retracing our footsteps or going down into Nigüelas.

We begin at the bridge over the river Genil at the Vegueta del Caracol and climb up a path that takes us into the valley to the junction with the Sulayr trail up to La Hortichuela. We ignore this, however, and continue on along our path (which also coincides with part of section 18 of the Sulayr trail. We pass by the chestnut tree known as “El Abuelo” (the old man), followed by the Loma del Muerto gorge and Cabañas Viejas stream, where the shade of the maples, oaks, ash and chestnut-trees and dyer’s oaks contrasts with the bright sunlight on the opposite slope, where abundant oaks, broom and scattered almond-trees grow. 4 - Río Vadillo: 37º 7´ 28.03” N - 3º 18´ 45.43” O 5 - Refugio Peña Partida: 37º 7´ 50.11” N - 3º 17´ 51.00” O Fuente: Google Earth After an hour we reach the confluence of the Vadillo and Genil Rivers, where we leave the Estrella path to go down towards the river Vadillo, through a willow wood that is often flooded during the snow melt.

The traditional track linking Güejar Sierra and Trevélez via the mountains also crosses here . View of the major peaks from Corral de la Umbría From here we can follow the old Nogueras irrigation channel, which runs alongside the Corral de la Umbría along a lengthy stretch before taking us to a pine forest, where we descend slightly to cross the river Vadillo. We climb back up for a while and then walk parallel to the riverbank among wild roses, vines and honeysuckle, ready to begin the toughest part of the route. A steep horseshoe-shaped climb takes us through the Peña Partida gorge, with its fine views of the Veleta peak. Still climbing, w ego into a wild pine forest that opens into a broom community, before continuing our climb up to the Peña Partida refuge at 2,450 m, where we can see the river Vadillo gorge among the rocks .

Leaving the Dornajo Visitors Centre we walk along the left slopes of the Genil valley towards the houses at La Cortijuela. We begin at Dornajo and, 100 m to the east, we join the road down to Güejar Sierra via the Hotel del Duque. We pass through extensive areas of reforested pine trees mixed with cedars, following the road down through broom communities that fill the landscape with colour in the spring. We leave the road up to Prado Redondo and the San Francisco refuge to our right, taking a short cut along the track between the tight curves of the road. We soon arrive at the transition between the dolomite and siliceous limestone area that runs around the western slopes of the Sierra Nevada. We can take a break at the spring in the Tejos gorge to refill our water bottles and, with a bit of luck, possibly see a mountain goat on the impressive crags.
