포르투고스‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪6‬개의 호수

Beautiful little reservoir that is currently being filled by meltwater

The trail is pretty easy to find until you get to the waterfalls. To reach Laguna Hondera you must climb up beside the first waterfall. That is between the two waterfalls. There are cairns on the path but it’s quite easy to miss them amongst the other routes up there. It’s a beautiful location. We saw a few ibex but only 2 other hikers!

The area of the Seven Lagoons (and Laguna Hondera in particular) is one of the most beautiful places in the Sierra Nevada National Park. The climb up here next to the waterfall formed by the Chorreras Negras is demanding, but all the pain in your legs is forgotten as soon as you reach the top and see the beauty of the place. Important note: if you plan to spend the night here, do not pitch your tent in the borreguiles (the grasslands). They are home to several species of flora endemic to the Sierra Nevada and it is necessary to protect them.

Good place to bivouac or camp one night under the stars

This picturesque Sierra Nevada route runs from the starting point of Hoya de la Mora to Pico Veleta and down to the Alpujarras of Granada. Be careful if you go by bike according to the laws of the Sierra Nevada National Park, you cannot leave the tracks

Melting lagoon with a particular story about its name. Legend has it that a shepherd witnessed two magicians throw a net into the lagoon in search of a red horse that would make whoever had it almighty, but after throwing the net three times they brought out three mares of different colors and left upset, leaving here the mares.

As a base camp for several tours (Veleta, Alcazaba and other surrounding 3000m), the Laguna Hondera (Siete Lagunas), a natural "campground" located at approx. 3000m, is warmly recommended. Sunset and sunrise are a dream from here. Accessible from Trevelez or Pradollano. In the morning, however, cattle can also frolic there.
