A guided half-day canyon hike from Granada through Los Cahorros de Monachil, with bridges, narrow passages, waterfalls, and Sierra Nevada views.
“This was a great short trip to get out of town and see the amazing scenery without travelling too far. Whilst we couldn’t do the original walk because of the weather we still had a fab walk and the guide was genuinely enthusiastic about the area.”
A small-group hike in Granada’s Monachil canyon at Los Cahorros, with bridges, tunnels, and ecosystem lessons for about 3 to 4 hours.
“Great hike, has a small level of difficulty getting around the rocky edges on the river. Other than that it's amazing.”
Escape Granada heat on a guided Sierra Nevada hike, reaching over 3,000m, with glacier valleys, waterfalls, and big Mulhacén views.
“Jamie is a fantastic guide and Kai the dog is just as fabulous. What a day! Thank you for making my dream come true. We had a good group with different pace and hiking experiences and Jamie managed to keep us all happy. This place is the paradise on earth! Would love to explore more area next time. Overnight stay and 2 hiking days would be even better!”
Granada full-day hike to Tajos del Campanario, climbing from the San Juan glacier valley with an UIMLA guide and small-group pace.
“Un camino muy bonito con vistas muy buenas al final. El guía y su perrito son majos y aunque hay que subir un poco se va con tranquilidad y suficientes descansos :)”
A small-group guided hike to Mirador de Los Cahorros and waterfalls, with crawls, climbs, hanging bridges, and optional water time.
“Scenery was beautiful. Hike was challenging for the first 45 minutes or so and the rest was very easy. It was nice to refresh in the waterfall. Make sure to bring a water bottle. It was ridiculously hot.”
Join a guided Sierra Nevada Veleta trek from Granada, with snowshoes in winter, a summit picnic, and small group views near the Med.
“Harry, our guide, helped make this a very special experience for me and my son. The climb was, at times, challenging, but he was very patient and encouraging. He let us go at our own pace. He prepared a beautiful picnic for when we reached the peak and surprised us with wine and beer after the decent to celebrate!”
Snowshoe hike in Sierra Nevada near Granada with private transport, brunch, and safety-focused guides for small groups.
“Our guided tour was beyond what we excepted for this price. Harry, a trained mountain rescuer, made us feel very safe all the way from the car ride up on the curvy roads to hiking at the top of the mountains. He knows the area very well. He is running the business with his family with lots of love to details and was just the perfect host. Next time I’m in the area, will definitely do another tour with his business. Highly recommend. Tour is a nice little workout and totally worth it!”
Guided 4 to 5 hour hike from Granada into Los Cahorros de Monachil, with hanging bridges, tunnels, and Sierra Nevada views.
“Naturaleza: el rio, las montañas ♥️ Paisajes impresionantes. El guia me daba la mano cuando necesitaba ayuda ♥️”
Four-hour snowshoe hike from Granada to Sierra Nevada’s Hoya de la Mora and Pico del Veleta, with an English guide and pickup.
“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.”
