🏖️ During the summer period, we do not organize hikes. We usually resume at the beginning of September. Please note if you go by yourself, temperatures above ☀️ 25°C (77°F) make a hike more strenuous than usual. Read more about the risks here.

This scenic hike starts near Albuñuelas and heads into the mountains toward the Pico de Lopera, a peak offering stunning views of the surrounding area. From the summit, you can enjoy panoramic vistas of the Río Verde, the plains of Zafarraya, and even the snowcapped peaks of the Sierra Nevada on clear days.

The trail combines gentle paths with some steady climbs, allowing hikers to gradually ascend while taking in the natural beauty of the mountains. The route is peaceful, with opportunities to observe local flora and fauna along the way.

The hike starts and finishes at Mesón Los Prados, providing a convenient base and a welcoming place to relax before or after the walk. Due to the higher altitude, be prepared for colder weather in winter.
