A Glimpse into Tranquility: Iglesia-Convento San Gregorio

Getting There

• Car

  If you're driving from central Sierra Nevada, take the A-395 road towards Granada. Upon reaching Granada, follow signs for the city center (Centro). Once in the city, look for signs directing you toward the Albaicín district. You will need to park in one of the public parking areas nearby, such as Parking Plaza Nueva or Parking San Agustín, as the streets in Albaicín are narrow and often restricted to pedestrian traffic. From the parking area, walk towards Plaza San Gregorio, which is approximately a 10-15 minute walk uphill.

• Public Transportation

  To reach Iglesia-Convento San Gregorio using public transport, first head to the main bus station in Sierra Nevada. Take the bus line that goes to Granada (you can check the local schedule for times). Once in Granada, get off at the stop for Plaza Isabel la Católica. From there, you can either walk to the Albaicín district (approximately a 20-minute walk) or catch a local bus or taxi to the Albaicín area. When you arrive in Albaicín, walk towards Plaza San Gregorio, which is the location of the convent.

• Taxi

  For a more convenient option, consider taking a taxi from Sierra Nevada directly to Iglesia-Convento San Gregorio. Taxis can be found at designated taxi ranks or can be booked via a taxi app. The journey will take around 45 minutes, depending on traffic. Expect to pay approximately €60-€80 for the ride, depending on the time of day and traffic conditions.
