베르슐 최고의 등산 경로

My start to the Mulhacén.

Beautiful route...good fitness and the summit is doable.

An effort "on par" with the views of the main peaks of the Sierra Nevada massif.

This mountain hut was closed for a long time due to renovations (from 2023), see the relevant website for more information (Spanish).

There is no fixed route on the terrain along this whole stretch of the ridge, nor are there any landmarks. You can go either way, keeping the direction towards the slope of Cerro Pelado. The summit is another pile of slate, schist and coloured graphite at the highest point of the mountain. It is the best viewpoint of the massif that begins at Puntal de Vacares and continues along the cliffs and ridges of Alcazaba and Mulhacén. The descent returns along the same path to avoid the steep eastern face of Cerro Pelado, about two hundred metres, and when the terrain is comfortable for descending along the slopes, you must head east along the large valley formed by the source of the river Trévelez.

The route continues along the summit of Puntal de Juntillas, which consists of a pile of stones with views of the eastern slope of the central sector of Sierra Nevada. To advance towards the next three thousand meters, you have to change course slightly and continue towards the southeast downhill. The descent is gentle, giving you the sensation of changing summits.

The summit landmark takes a while to appear on the great hill of the mountain, but finally the striking pinnacle of stones, the geodesic vertex and the small corral of the bivouac emerge. This is all there is at the summit, but around it the panorama is spectacular. The deserts of Gorafe, Hoya de Baza and even the sierras of Baza and Filabres seem to be part of another reality. And towards the interior of the sierra, the Alcazaba, Mulhacén and Veleta appear, dominating the rest of the three thousand meters of the Sierra Nevada. The views are good but they get even better further on. The route continues towards the southwest along the typical rocky carpet of mica schists and slates of the Nevada mountains to a small hill where you would have to escape in case of a blizzard or any complication towards the east, towards the Puerto de Trévelez.

One of the many scenic peaks in this range.
