solopes Says: Sierra Nevada is not much than a winter resort, the most attractive to the Portuguese due to price and distance. The best time to visit it is around Easter, when the sun shines in the snow, and, less that one hour distant you have the marvels of "moor" Granada. Unless your...
GibJoe Says: La Alambra is just about a 30 minute drive from Sierra Nevada. It is worth taking a day out from the skiing and visiting La Alambra. It is well worth it! Have a look in Granada pages.
GibJoe Says: Yes built a snowman ! This is a snowman and dog I built with a couple of my friends. The dog was extremely difficult to built!
GibJoe Says: Try to get your ski pass as early as possible especially on Fridays and weekends as there can be a big queue at the ticket counters. If you are not going to ski there is a cheaper ticket which is a return. Once you have finished with the ski passes return them to the Ticket...
mcb Says: It is great go up and down on the cable car, they have lots of them there we went on the Telecabine one.

Apartamentos Monachil: Apartments
GibJoe Says: These are self catering apartments with a small kitchen. The apartments are well maintained and cleaned every day. The location of these apartments is excellent as they are situated in Pradollano, which is the main square of Sierra Nevada, on top of the car park. The ski...
Hotel Rumaykiyya: Hotel Rumaykiyya
GibJoe Says: Very pleasant stay in this hotel with spacious rooms. It does have a parking area which is excellent becuase parking in Sierra Nevada is an upsolute nightmare. The service is great and it does have its own restaurant. It is a five star hotel. This hotel I beleive is the...

mcb Says: We stayed in Etap hotel in Granada one of the accor Hotels. Very cheep. 30 euros for the room, very clean a plastic hotel.I like them. A litle outside the city, parking free and easy, coffee, breakfast, a great bar near.
Borregiles Restaurant: Eat at the top
GibJoe Says: Once you get the ski lift to the top, there are three restaurants. One is a fast food type of restaurant which is always packed and you usually end up eating standing up. Borreguiles has a better variety, and at least you can sit down to have your meal. It is slightly more...
BORREGUILES RESTAURANT: On the top of the Sierra
mcb Says: Located when coming out of the Telecabinas (the cable car)in the building of the same name. Self-service and sandwiches. We loved to go there it was warm and the ambience was great, we could see the ski people coming down.

Skiing outside the tracks is very dangerous, we all know that! But yet many people still do it! Do yourself and others a favour and keep to the tracks and take notice of the various warning signs.

kis, boots and clothing can be hired at the many shops available. I managed to get boots and skis for 45 euros for three days (15 euros a day) (March 2007), which is not bad at all. Just have a look around for the better prices because they change constantly. You normally will have to leave your ID with the shop when you rent out the equipment.

Favorite thing: From the rooftops of the Alhambra you have a beautiful spot from which to see the Sierra Nevada mountains. This is the direction we would be heading later in the day, first to Guadix and then later INTO and over the mountains toward Bubion...we had much to look forward to.

Sierra Nevada is the most southern ski resort in Europe, so you do get the best of both worlds, skiing and a good climate. The resort uses natural snow and it is aided by snow cannons when necessary....
Snow, in Portugal means Serra da Estrela. And only for short periods. That's why the biggest winter sports resort for the Portuguese stays in Spain, exactly in Sierra Nevada. But if you are no winter...
