Stage 7. Granada- Laujar de Andarax. 84 mi/ 8922 ft
Description
We leave Granada but we still stay in the Sierra Nevada National Park. We ride in the north side of Sierra Nevada in the Zenete area where a lot of people still live in caves. After looking at La Calahorra castle, we climb La Ragua Pass that leads us into the southern side of the mountains in Las Alpujarras. White villages hanging from the mountain slopes have a special climate due to the proximity of the sea. One of those villages, Laujar de Andarax is our destination today.
Lodging: Hotel Villa de Laujar ***
