Your best experience in the Snow.

The ski school is very professional and take care of everything. Starting from logistics, parking, gear to ski lessons, advising you about the weather conditions and give you nice suggestions so that you don't have to worry about anything. I was a bit scared when I left my 3 years old son for the first time on the snow with ski, but teachers are very professional and he learnt very fast skiing and enjoyed it a lot. we all had great time with the school and will be definitely coming back and using services in the future. I would highly recommend it.

This trail is awesome! Be sure to bring swimwear as there are plenty of opportunities to take a dip in the cold water. The path is exciting and at times difficult to overcome. This isn't just a walk in the park. Bring lots of water if you are going on the summer.

We've eaten here about five times recently. The food is always good - fresh ingredients creatively put together. The owner, Mar, is so warm and friendly as is Laura who works for her. The tapas are always good as are the fresh, homemade pizzas. We also love the fresh, homemade lemonade. At different times of the year, this is also a cultural centre with different events and jazz. 'La Chistera' has a Terrace outside that's right on the river which runs through the centre of Monachil so there's a lovely rushing water sound as you drink and eat. There are also books and I think a few kids games if you ask for them. Highly recommended.

From my own experiences (May 2015), I can highly recommend Geándalus. If you're staying in Granada and/or the Sierra Nevada and you would like to do one or several really beautiful and interesting guided walks, you can contact the organisation of Geándalus to ask what the possibilities are. Their local (certified) guides have a lot of knowledge about the surroundings and they really enjoy sharing their enthusiasm for the nature in this area with you.
I was lucky to do 5 guided walks with Geándulus, together with my group. Every walk the guides showed us a different landscape: the lower Mountains, high Mountains, a walk through a gorge, visiting historical sites and along the 'acequias' (irrigation canals), which was one of my favorites.
They adjusted the walks and talks to our wishes, what was very nice. Every guide had his/her own specialty, geology, flora & fauna, archaeology, from which he/she told us some really interesting things. Thanks to these walks, we had a really nice week.
For the Dutch speaking: gids Fini spreekt naast Engels ook een beetje Nederlands.
