알콜레아 최고의 MTB 라이딩 경로

Fondón is a village in the Alpujarra region of Almería, surrounded by mountains and nature. Its historic center is notable for the Mudejar church of San Andrés and several chapels, as well as fountains and stately homes. It is a good starting point for hiking trails such as the GR-142 or the GR-140, which pass through landscapes of orchards, ravines, and vineyards. Visitors can enjoy the opportunity to taste the local wines and traditional dishes such as "olla de trigo" (wheat stew) or "remojón" (remojón).

A great stop for photos of hairpins

more paper clip than horseshoe :-) the roads here are great!

In the tourist information office there is a beautifully done exhibition about the history of the region (unfortunately I didn't understand the language). Check it out!

The Puerto de la Ragua marks the border between the provinces of Granada and Almería. The Sierra Nevada stretches on both sides, with the 3000m peaks on the Granada side. The highest mountain in the province of Almería, El Chullo, is, however, easily accessible from the Puerto de la Ragua. The Puerto de la Ragua is just over 2000m.

This is the Jules Verne forest house in the Sierra de Gador

One of the few asphalt passes over 2,000m in the region. You just have to take it with you, even if it's not particularly "exciting" IMHO.

Located right at the highest point of the Raga pass (2000 meters), the Ragua refuge is a mountain refuge with a guard and capacity for 32 bunk beds. Currently (September 2023) it remains closed and waiting to carry out renovations in the facilities, which had been very deteriorated due to lack of maintenance.
