This was a guided walk that added to our experience of the visit to the Alhambra the previous day. The views of the city from a different perspective were breathtaking. Our guide Julio was knowledgeable and interesting making this a very enjoyable walk.
This was the second time we have been on a guided walk with Attraversiamo and we hope it will not be the last. Thank you.

We loved this hike and highly recommend it. Our guides were two Brazilian men and they were lovely and took lots of photos of each of the couples in our group (we had really nice people in our group.) They are very knowledgable and were funny too. The hike is varied (mostly water at the beginning) and beautiful. They gave us hiking sticks which were useful. You need to be at least average fitness to do this tour, wear comfortable shoes (good trainers are fine, they don’t need to be waterproof - just watch your steps). Do make sure you carry water. I advise you take a small hiking backpack with a water bladder, not a draw string backpack. There is some ‘crawling’, some climbing over and holding onto handles, thin ledges, and some steep parts. The pace was good. You need to do lots of leg stretches afterwards, or your calves will ache, if you’re not used to 6K hikes. The price was basically a bargain. I would love to do this tour again. Thanks very much to our great guides!

What to expect
The most classic of the excursions in the city of Granada due to its access that is more steeped in history, from Avellano to the top of Cerro del Sol along the path of the Alarife.
Going up to Llano de la Perdiz is the 'classic' of the excursions that can be done on foot from the city, without needing to take the car to enter places of renowned beauty. There are numerous ways to ascend to the summits of Cerro del Sol and this tour is designed to enjoy the best views and end in the center of the city of Granada.
The walk is in a space that was dedicated to provisioning and resting for the inhabitants of the Alhambra environment. It is a plateau, a small plateau in which one of the most well-known places related to the city of Granada is located, the Llano de la Perdiz, the place where, for decades, the people of Granada have come to enjoy direct contact with nature.
