Day Rides
-----------------------

These day rides offer a perfect introduction to the spectacular landscapes of the Sierra Nevada National Park. You will enjoy up to three full days riding, spending around 6 hours each day in the saddle.

The routes follow a combination of old bridle-paths and forest tracks enabling you to explore first hand some of the more inaccessible ravines and valleys of the Sierra Nevada mountains. High summer pastures with streams fed by the snow-melt of the Mulhacén lead down to whitewashed villages in the valleys.

On one day we ride high into the mountains. The mountain paths have spectacular views of the highest peaks on one side and views down to the Mediterranean on the other. Other days we can take a lower route where the wide forest tracks allow for a faster pace.

PRICE:

85 Euros plus 16% IVA per person per day including lunch.
