アルメヒハルの峠・トップ5

A great place to relax. You can take homemade wine and a piece of cake. You can also go higher!

Quiet, scenic mountain road.

Nice descent from Trevelez 😎

Mostly good asphalt (2023), little traffic and a great, impressive landscape. We recommend.

This is a point of completion of Puerto a cima known by cyclists, it is a climb from level 0 to level 1200 m above sea level, a good place to end the route and be able to enjoy a good breakfast at the Haza del restaurant lino or some good beers with its good tapas of poor potatoes with offal or chicken, this place was well known in the past because here during the nights the temperature drops a lot and even in summer because of the heights and here after a slaughter of some pig would bring the pieces for later salting and curing of the pieces to obtain a good ham.

Road that descends from Juviles to Nieles. It used to be an unpaved road but nowadays it is paved. A winding road with impressive views of the Cordel del Hazadel Hinojar valley.

La Alpujarra is a historical region with some of the most remote, picturesque and traditional villages in Andalusia. With an average elevation of 1200 meters, the area is considered one of the hardest part of the route specially due to the steepness of its climbs. At the village of Capileira starts the South climb to the Veleta Pass (3212meters), the natural mountain pass to the city of Granada.

Café and Bocadillos at the pass.
