Orgiba, or Orgiva in English is the capital of the region and is a small town where you meet people living in alternative ways. On my last visit, I stayed at the campsite south of town. They are not that many and deserve to be pointed out. Orgiva is a good base camp to rest. The city center presents a monumental statue of the head of the hero of Cervantés: Don Quixote.

The municipality of Órgiva is part of the Sierra Nevada Natural Park and is located on its southern slopes.
Known as the capital of the Alpujarra region of Granada, it is an ideal destination for combining culture, nature, and gastronomy.
