Recreational Area "El Nacimiento" and surroundings,
Sierra Nevada Natural Park, Laujar de Andarax.
Through the area runs a stretch of the Andarax River that rises in Sierra Nevada and flows into Almeria. This is undoubtedly the most beautiful part of the route of the river, since the place is surrounded by a wooded area very different from the arid of its mouth.
It is an ideal place for hiking and other adventure sports, and can be complemented with a visit to the Visitor Center of Laujar de Andarax to give us a more concrete picture of the place where we are.
Puerto de la Ragua,
Sierra Nevada National Park.
Located in the Sierra Nevada National Park, between the provinces of Granada and Almeria, the Puerto de la Ragua (2,000 m. altitude) is a natural passage between two very different regions: La Alpujarra and El Marquesado del Zenete, which have managed to preserve intact, despite the passing of the centuries, their customs, traditions and way of life.
Far from the hustle and bustle of alpine ski resorts, Puerto de la Ragua, dedicated to sports activities compatible with the environment, coexists in harmony with the natural landscape that surrounds it. Due to its location, it is a perfect place for the development of a multitude of activities.
These activities can be carried out in both natural enclaves:
Hiking
Guided tours that will bring us closer to the natural heritage of Sierra Nevada.
Orientation
Initiation to the sport of orienteering through the use of the compass.
Archery (El Nacimiento Recreational Area)
After receiving some basic notions on the use and knowledge of the equipment, we will practice on targets placed at different distances.
Slackline (El Nacimiento Recreational Area)
Balancing on a taut ribbon between trees, concentrating on one's own body and the nature that surrounds us.
Snowshoeing (Puerto de la Ragua, in winter)
Itineraries with snowshoes of different duration and difficulty, discovering another different aspect of the mountain range and the traces that its inhabitants leave in the snow.
