Camping Alpujarras

Camping Alpujarras is in the Sierra Nevada National Park between the provinces of Granada and Almeria and the ski resort of Puerto de la Ragua. Get into the Andalusian outdoors around here whatever the season, for hiking, mountain biking, orienteering and horse-riding in the summer, and dog sledding, skiing and snowboarding in the cooler months. The site is in the Sierra Nevada National Park, a place of diverse landscapes from valleys to peaks to rivers and mountain lakes, and a haven for hikers as well as wildlife watchers: species to see here include the Spanish ibex, wild boars, pine martens and badgers, and, soaring overhead, golden and Bonelli's eagles, kestrels and little owls. Take the camera to the Puerto de la Ragua straight up from the campsite, or to the peaks of the Marquesado del Zenete or the Morron del Hornillo mountains. Chullo, the highest peak in Almeria at 2,610 metres, has topping views over the mountainous landscape and to Spain's highest mountain Mulhacén.
