alpujarras day trip

Alpujarras Tourist Guide

TripSavvy / Damian Corrigan

The Alpujarras, south of Granada, is a mountain range with a beautiful collection of villages and some of the most stunning countryside in all of Spain . An essential day trip from Granada, you could easily spend a week here, especially if you enjoy hiking, as it has some of the best trails in the country.

Those who are knowledgeable in alternative medicine will notice a number of beneficial herbs and grasses growing by the side of the road. The prickly pears and blackberries are edible, though if you aren't entirely confident of what it is, best wait until you arrive in one of the villages and buy some there. It's safer that way, too - the prickly pears will leave their thorns behind in your fingers and the blackberries will stain your clothes no matter how careful you are!

Two famous books were written on this region - Chris Stewart's Driving Over Lemons and Gerald Brennan's South from Granada.

Guided Tours of the Alpujarras

The Alpujarras region is a fragmented area of tiny villages and public transport is limited. Without a private car, you'd struggle to see more than two villages in a day. But if you take a tour, you'll visit some of the best spots in the area without the hassle of driving (and map-reading!) yourself.

Best Time to Visit

There is a vast number of festivals in the Alpujarras region, the most fun being the Fiesta de Agua, which is a giant water fight held each June 24 in Lanjarón (much like the Tomatina Tomato Fight , only cleaner!) and the New Year's Eve in August in Bérchules. In early October the citizens of Cádiar replace water in the fountains with wine and don't get themselves arrested.

Three Things to Do

• Go hiking. There are some excellent hiking trails in the region (see below).
• Sample the natural spring water - at its purest in Lanjarón and its most medicinal at the Fuente Agria near Portugos.
• Taste some of the finest jamón (Spanish ham) in the country.

How to Get to the Alpujarras From Granada

• By Car : With so many small villages to explore, a car is your only real option if you plan on seeing a lot of the Alpujarras in one day. You need to drive around the mountains along the A44 until Lanjarón is signposted. However, to explore the region, you'll need to buy a map.
• By Bus : Taking a bus is very impractical in this region; you'll only get to see two towns at the most in a day if you rely on public transport. However, if you intend on basing yourself in one town for a few days, taking the bus is certainly possible. Experiment for yourself on Movelia and see if there are buses to where you want them when you want them.

Where to Next?

You're more than halfway to the beach, so if you have a car the coast is an obvious next stop, though public transport is going to be difficult if not impossible, so you'll need to return to Granada if you are relying on buses.

Villages of the Alpujarras

These are the most important towns in the Alpujarras, though there are a number more. To visit them all would require two days. And that's without any hiking or real exploration of the countryside around these villages.

These villages are listed in the order you will pass them when coming from Granada. For pictures, see Pictures of the Alpujarras.

• Home of the water of the same name, Lanjaron has a good  health spa , with five natural springs in the town.
• Orgiva is one of the larger towns in the area and has relatively good public transport links with Granada and Malaga. There is a  Buddhist retreat  5km from here (open for visitors from 3 pm till 6 pm).
• Shares the Río Poqueira gorge with Bubión and Capileira, Pampaneira is one of the prettiest villages in the Alpujarras. The stream that flows through its streets is especially cute.
• Bubión is a great base if you want to go walking - it is on the  GR7 hiking route .
• The highest of the three Río Poqueira towns, it is a good starting point if you intend on climbing the mountain Mulhacén.
• Not an especially exciting town, but it is home to the Fuente Agria, a natural spring with very high iron content. The water tastes of sparkling water that have gone flat and, though completely clear, leaves an orange residue where it flows.
• Trevélez is the biggest ham-producing town in one of the biggest ham producing regions in Spain . It also produces good wines.
• A small town remarkable only for its New Year's Eve in August festival.
• Village very close to Bérchules, where they fill the fountains with wine each October.

In this experience, we can expect: gastronomy, tradition, ways of life, nature, the incredible hydraulic infrastructure, and much more. Its streets and squares. Its fountains, washhouses, and tinaos.

After crossing the Tablate Bridge, already within the Alpujarra region, the first village where we will stop for breakfast is Lanjarón, famous for the quality of its medicinal waters, which give rise to one of Spain’s most highly-rated spas.

Lanjarón possesses the essential characteristic that defines the image of Alpujarran villages: a unique architecture in its houses, perfectly adapted to the rugged terrain and the climate of the area, arranged along narrow streets where the memory of its Moorish past endures.

The excursion continues towards Pampaneira, in the heart of the Poqueira Ravine, still retaining most of the distinctive features of the region. During the visit, we recognize its narrow and steep cobbled streets with water channels in the center, its traditional white houses with terraces and tinaos, or its looms and local craft shops.

Capileira, with its location and an altitude of almost one and a half thousand meters, offers us the best views of the ravine from the various viewpoints it possesses. From here, we can also enjoy spectacular panoramas of the peaks of Mulhacén and Veleta.

In Capileira, scattered throughout the village, we find several viewpoints, of which it is said that on sunny days, we can see all the way to the mountains of Africa.

As an optional extension to a 6-hour excursion, we can enjoy an additional two hours in the heart of the Alpujarra, starting with the town of Pórtugos, where it is not the facades and flower pots that give fame to the village, but the iron-rich waters of the Fuente Agria, with a curious “spicy” taste and great health benefits (liver, stomach, intestines, kidneys). After drinking the waters, we must not miss the Chorrerón de Pórtugos, the beautiful waterfall we will find on the other side of the road. To reach it, you have to descend no less than 80 steps.

As the end of our excursion, we visit Trevélez, the highest village in Spain and home to the highest vineyards in Europe. It produces the famous Jamón de Trevélez, cured at high altitudes and enjoying Protected Geographical Indication status due to its extremely high quality and flavor.

SOUTH OF SPAIN: ANDALUSIA, ALMERIA AND GRANADA

Andalucía is Spain’s most southerly region , heavy with Moorish influence, which is evident in the wonderful food and historic architecture of the coastline. Road trip Andalucia for some of Spain’s most romantic cities, the passion of flamenco and its iconic “ pueblos blancos “ (white towns) and you will encounter stunning landscapes that you won’t want to leave.

CHOOSE ALMERIA FOR YOUR DAY TRIPS IN SPAIN…

Almería is located in the Eastern part of Andalucía, bordering the Mediterranean Sea, Granada province in Andalucía and the Murcia region to the north. Just being in Almeria is an attraction in itself, because its unassuming beauty is all around: in the mountain landscapes, in the coastal seascapes, in the natural parks and of course in the nature reserves.

Every village and town here are special, each with its history and charm. The village fuente (fountain), the plaza (square), or the iglesia (church) are magic!

CHARMING AND BEAUTIFUL ALPUJARRA REGION IN SOUTHERN SPAIN

Almería shares the Alpujarra region with Granada.  While the villages in Granada are lusher and better known, Almería’s Alpujarra pueblos are mostly off the map.

Discover the beauty of nature in Las Alpujarras from Granada

On the slopes of the grand Sierra Nevada Mountains there is a hilly region known as the Las Alpujarras. It covers about 70 km of alpine vegetation and rocky outcrops interrupted by fertile terrace farmlands and orchards with natural springs that are fed by the snowcapped peaks. Spread around there are tiny whitewashed villages . These villages have Mudéjar churches and houses with flat roofs and unique chimney pots, and are lined with beautiful flowers.

Dipping into the villages throughout Las Alpujarras is an magnificent adventurous day trip from Granada

The whitewashed façades, the flat slate or stone roofs and their narrow streets transform them into a unique landscape full of springs and legends that, over the centuries, has attracted travelers from around the world.

UNTOUCHED VILLAGES OF THE ALPUJARRA: BEST VILLAGES IN ALPUJARRAS

Granada’s Alpujarra region offers some great hiking, and some of the most charming towns in Southern Spain.  This area is perfect for hiking and cycling.

Some of the standout pueblos are Ohanes, Canjáyar, Fondón, and Laujar de Andarax. Moreover, a few towns worth seeing are Órgiva, Lanjarón, Pampaneira, Trevélez, or Válor, each one with something amazing to share.

These are only a few of the places to stop, but there are so many more.  If you have the time, a few days in the Alpujarra will be rewarding.

La Alpujarra is for sure on of the most impressive regions in Spain and at the same time the perfect place to relax yourself after dealing with the crowds in cities like Seville , Granada , or Malaga .

This trip is definitely a must for any adventurer in Andalusia, especially for those looking to immerse themselves in its gorgeous nature and quaint environments.

Kati is a brilliant and knowledgeable guide, who is lovely to spend time with. We went to such a local place that we would never have found by ourselves. We ill definitely try other tours in future.

• 436juliannem 0 contributions 5.0 of 5 bubbles A magical private trip to Grenada to Sevilla Our private transfer was from Sevilla but instead of going to Cordoba, we spent time having a private tour of Albayzin, a Moorish district in Grenada with some time to ourselves for lunch/exploration as well before a private tour of Alhambra and then private transfer return to Sevilla. In total, it was all day 12 hour excursion and so worth it. My husband and our college-age daughter were on the tour with me. We really want to maximize our time in Grenada given that we only had 1 day to visit and were using Sevilla as a base (where we stayed for 3 nights). Our guide, Carlos Carnevali, was fantastic-we felt very comfortable in the drive there and back-really enjoyed getting to know him. He pointed out wonderful spots in Grenada and Albayzin and ensured that we had the handoffs to our wonderful private guide, Jesus, for Alhambra. Maria, who owns the company was also very easy to work with and communicative. She really gets wonderful guides who are local and truly focused on sharing their passion for the area and focused on ensuring that visitors get their most from the experience. It is was well worth the $ to have a private transport and the experience although a long day. Bring comfortable shoes, sunhat, sunglasses and water. We went in spring on a warm day-it would be really hot in summer. Read more Written April 13, 2024
• 436juliannem 0 contributions 5.0 of 5 bubbles A magical private tour of Grenada-it is 100% worth the $ to spend time in such a special place As a part of a long day trip from Sevilla, my husband and our college-age daughter, went on a private guided tour that was given by Jesu^s. He was wonderful with a great sense of humor and took the time to point out details of the place and special places to pause and take in the surroundings/pictures. I highly recommend the private tour-it is worth the extra $ to spend time in such a magical place versus being herded around in a larger group. Maria, who owns the company that is a subcontractor to Get your Guide , was very easy to work with and provided key information in advance as we were making our decision. Thank you for such a memorable visit. Read more Written April 13, 2024

• Suzie B 0 contributions 5.0 of 5 bubbles Great local experience! Wonderful local experience in the neighborhood Triana of Seville. Kati took us to a fabulous little bar for our first tapas where we had the best dish so far in our 2 week trip. We learned so much about Flamingo dancing from her, a dancer herself, that it made the show experience even more meaningful. Very nice and personal evening.. thank you Kati and so glad we got to see you dance a little too since I am pretty sure you are the best dancer in Seville! Read more Written March 28, 2024

The ride from Granada to Ronda is a great chance to catch up on Andalusian history and landmarks before exploring Ronda. Even if you are not a bull fight aficionado, the stadium/museum has to be seen to understand the Andalusian spirit. As for the Ronda bridge, pictures do not do it justice. The view from below of the man-made bridge juxtaposed with Mother Nature’s stone carving is as an impressive sight as you will ever see in Spain. So we were very happy to be Not Just a Tourist with Miguel. Read more Written March 26, 2024

Our guide Kati was absolutely fantastic, so warm, friendly and knowledgeable, she herself is a professional flamenco dancer! We toured the Triana area while she gave us a very informative talk about the history of the neighbourhood, the origins of flamenco and the gypsy culture. We then visited a local bar where we watched a flamenco show up close and on to another bar after the show where we enjoyed tapas and drinks. Thank you Kati for the amazing tour, we loved it! The tour was on the pricier side though and our suggestion would be to perhaps offer a slightly lower price level for fewer drinks/dishes. Read more Written March 21, 2024

• lorathai2024 0 contributions 5.0 of 5 bubbles The most exotic trip of our entire life! We were in Seville and thinking about taking a day trip to Tánger. After contacting the company, Mahsa was very helpful with everything and when she noticed that we had more time she suggested taking a longer trip and visiting Chefchoauen too. That was auch a great idea. She even took care of our accommodation which was a delightful traditional house run by a very nice owner. Omar, was our guide and we even had a private driver. They were energetic and very knowledgeable. The whole trip was pure magic and we felt very well-taken care of. It is a shame, we did not make it to the desert as it requires a longer trip. But we are definitely going to dedicate another trip to explore Marrakech and the desert with Not Just a Tourist. If you are in Spain make sure to contact them and visit Morocco even for one day. There is so much beauty and history there and it is very safe too. Read more Written March 18, 2024
