Los Cahorros Hiking Day Trip from Granada

On this excursion, you’ll walk a route of around 6.5 kilometres that takes you through the Monachil River Gorge from the Sierra Nevada to Los Cahorros. A minibus will take you from Granada to the Sierra Nevada, where you’ll start the route. You’ll also be provided with walking poles to make your walk more comfortable. The estimated duration of the walk is around 3 hours.

The Monachil River Gorge is one of the most attractive, easy and popular walking routes in Granada. The gorge is also a popular spot for climbing enthusiasts and is ideal for enjoying a day out in the countryside.

The excursion will take place in a small group of no more than 12 people. Along the route, you’ll cross suspension bridges and pass by caves, waterfalls, natural rock pools and more. You’ll also be able to enjoy the beautiful views offered by the Sierra Nevada National Park.

The Sierra Nevada area was designated a National Park in 1999. It covers around 90,000 hectares of protected land and is visited by some 780,000 people each year. The park is a popular destination for hiking, as well as for climbing and skiing.

Amongst other wonders, it is home to the Cortijuela Botanical Garden, the Hoya de Pedraza Botanical Centre and the Sierra Nevada Botanical Garden.

Although the route for this excursion is safe, the tickets include accident and third-party liability insurance covering all participants.

Once you arrive at Los Cahorros, you will return to Granada by minibus, where you will be dropped off at the same place where you were picked up.
