A fantastic trip up in the snowy peaks and a novel way to look back towards Granada. Our host, Julio, welcomed us and carefully drove up the spectacular pass to the hiking spot. The equipment was in great condition and easy to use. In a mix of Spanish, Portuguese and English, Julio pointed out places of interest and facts about the area. The level of effort required is moderate and you are well-rewarded for it.

It was nice, but we had not that much snow. And to walk uphill with rackets is quite a challenge. We had very nice instructor though.

We will always remember the stunning location, the unique nature of the trip, the welcome from skiers, and Julio's knowledge, help and patience. He also kindly sent us some great photos afterwards which we will always cherish.

Great trip with a fantastic guide. Pick up in Granada city centre. Less than an hour to trailhead and a fantastic couple of hours. Julio is a great guide, very friendly and speaks good English. Amazing views of Sierra Nevada.
