    What to expect

      Day 1

      We drive to the village Monachil, located in a fertile valley of the Sierra Nevada Mountain Range at 800 meters above sea level, just outside Granada. The walking path, called Cahorros Trail, is a hiking path in the lower hills of Sierra Nevada National Park. The trail starts in the village following the river up toward the entrance of the narrow gorge. The way becomes a succession of stairs, crawling under overhanging rocks, and crossing hanging bridges along a cascading river through the canyon that creates rockpools and caves, making the walk an adventure for the whole family. At the end of the gorge, we return by a higher route, from which you get stunning views of the lush Monachil Valley. A great escape from the city and a perfect family day out in the mountains!
