Andalusia's mountainous Alpujarra region features Spain's highest peak, Mulhacén, rising to a height of 3,478 meters. It provides perhaps the best walking and hiking country in Andalucia and boasts many picturesque villages for the less adventurous traveler.

Last year, at the end of September we spent 5 days walking in the Alpujarras region. We visited Lanjaron, a spa centre, where we stayed in the hotel ESPANA. Also went to Treveléz, well-known for its mouthwatering curred ham jamon serrano. The village of Treveléz is the highest in mainland Spain, at 1,486m. The best of best was "Walk 6128": CAPILEIRA-BUBIÓN-PAMPANEIRA length: 3.8miles. It was a lovely sunny day, stunning views and amazing white villages.

We hiked this on our own a few weeks after the area had received heavy rain. The river was high, the path was muddy near the village and slick in many spots. We had a blast negotiating our way up the gorge. This trail is not for anyone who struggles to crawl, or scamper along a cement wall holding onto metal grabs. There are multiple areas where you have to do both and I was glad the river wasn't any higher or we would have had difficulty in a few spots where you have to climb down into the river and step along the cement wall to stay on the trail. You'll want your hands free and good hiking shoes. When we got to the top of the trail we took a road around the edge of the canyon back into the village. This was not a interesting or as pretty as the gorge. If you have time you may want to go back along the river.

I bought 6 hours of group lessons for my 8 year old son and 3 hours of group lessons for myself off Groupon.es. Always wary of these offers but this one was successful! In the end they didn't give me the full 3 hours as there were only two people in my group - instead they changed it to 2 hours, calling it a private lesson - which it wasn't, so was a little unfair I thought. However, we were very pleased with my son's lessons as by the second set of 3 hours, he was able to take the ski lift up to the green slopes and confidentially ski down with Javi the instructor, who gave his absolute all to teach my son to ski well. Javier is the director at Ski Centre Sierra Nevada and I wholeheartedly recommend using him if you want to learn to ski! Thanks Javi - just so you know Oliver skiied "El Rio" that same afternoon! We'll definitely be back, and we would definitely call on Javi again!
