We are committed to the environment and work towards sustainable tourism.
That is why we are taking measures in this direction. More information
1. With this experience we all collaborate with the work of the volunteers of Sierra Nevada, since 5% of the amount of the experience without VAT is destined to the projects they carry out.
2.- All actions related to the activity and that consume energy -before being carried out in the office, in the origin-destination route and in the activity itself- are compensated with the certified project Neutro Carbón collaborating in reforestation in the Piornal Cacereño.
3. Special prices in low season outside of national holidays and during the week. Singular tour different from that taken by most visitors.
4. At the end of the experience we offer lunch in a local restaurant with which we collaborate.

Walking in the mountains. Medium level of demand
Hiking route with interpretation of the natural and cultural heritage through the medieval villages of the Tahá de Pitres; located in the heart of the Alpujarra.
The excursion can be defined as "author's journey" where the guide makes a solitary journey through the heart of the Alpujarra. The region of La Alpujarra is located on the south side of the Sierra Nevada mountain range and immersed in the Natural Park. Its small white villages seem to be "hanging" from the slopes that descend from the snowy peaks. The landscape is the result of human transformation of an untamed nature. The isolation of the region has preserved its original and unique landscape.
Our goal is to walk the medieval paths of the Tahá de Pitres that link the villages less traveled by tourists and hikers.
We will pass through Mecina, Mecinilla and Fondales, Ferreirola, Busquistar and Atalbéitar, as we advance along the path we will discover the corners of these villages, we will talk about their origin and history, their natural resources and traditions. We will walk along irrigation ditches, passing by ponds, threshing floors, mineral water springs and centenary chestnut trees.
Overall, the characteristics of this route will allow us to feel a real sense of immersion in the magical territory of the Alpujarra.
