Almuñecar Department of Sports organises successful hike in Sierra de Las Albuñuelas

The hike to the village of Las Albuñuelas organised by the Almuñecar Department of Sports was a success, and they are already preparing for the next one.

The Department of Sports of Almuñecar took 25 hikers on a route from the Prados de Lopera to Las Albuñuelas on Sunday, April 24.

The hikers walked along the long-distance path known as GR-7, which has abundant resin trees and native vegetation. The medium-difficulty route took about five hours and started at Mesón de Los Prados (GR-7), went through El Cañuelo, Carril y Casa Forestal, El Sequero, Barranco, Rambla del Moral and Los Ubedas and finished in the village of Las Albuñuelas.

The next hike will be on May 8 in the Alpujarra town of Lanjarón. It will be a route that passes several farmhouses and places of great beauty such as the chestnut grove of Patatún, the arch bridge and the forest house of Tello.
