Laguna Hondera

The area of the Seven Lagoons (and Laguna Hondera in particular) is one of the most beautiful places in the Sierra Nevada National Park. The climb up here next to the waterfall formed by the Chorreras Negras is demanding, but all the pain in your legs is forgotten as soon as you reach the top and see the beauty of the place.

Important note: if you plan to spend the night here, do not pitch your tent in the borreguiles (the grasslands). They are home to several species of flora endemic to the Sierra Nevada and it is necessary to protect them.

Idyllic lagoon and starting point to the summit Mulhacén. Ideal place for a bivouac. Very green during the summer months. From the latest in late October then iced until the spring.

Beautiful relaxing spot just below Mulhacen. Ideal for a rest break or an overnight campsite if you are doing a winter ascent of the mountain.
