グレネードの峡谷・トップ13

It feels like you're in a Western movie 😉. The mountains, the flora, and the fauna around you are simply amazing. You can't get enough of it 🤩

Great hiking trail, very warm (remember to bring plenty of water). Recommendation: Wear proper hiking boots. You'll be rewarded with a beautiful view.

This trail runs through the upper part of the Monachil River canyon, also known as the Los Cahorros Gorge. The view of the white roads winding through these arid mountains is spectacular. Also, if the day is clear, you can see the city of Granada and even the Alhambra.

An alternative road that avoids the Alto de Hazallanas, per la estreta vall de El Charcón. La carretera surt de la població de Güejar Sierra, passant per Maitena i que ressegueix el río Genil. A posteriori, s'enfila cap a la carretera de las Sabinas fins a Pradollano.

It is a great experience to walk over the long suspension bridge... It is not very high above the stream, you should be free from giddiness :-) Under the bridge is a small place to take a break by the creek, the descent is short and easy.

Very nice tour always along the Monachil. You hike over several suspension bridges. Sometimes you have to walk along the river on your knees or by handholds. Easy to handle even on hot days.

The lands that act as a geological border between the Vega de Granada and the Temple, are arid, desert spaces, reminiscent of the Baza and Guadix northeast gullies. It is a land of silt, gypsum and conglomerates, in which the vegetation has had to adapt to the high concentrations of salt and the lack of water. The walls and sections show the marks left by the passage of time. Each strip is a stratum that, like a historical archive, narrates what happened in millions of years.

This Cahorros de Monachil route began in the town of Monachil, about 14 kilometers from Granada, within the Sierra Nevada Natural Park.
