Description

Would you like to enjoy a classic hike in the beautiful Sierra Nevada Mountain Range in Spain? Then this 2-day hike along the Vereda de la Estrella path is for you.

An extremely popular and wonderfully scenic hiking route, the Vereda de la Estrella will show you a number of tremendous highlights in the Sierra Nevada. You will get to gaze at the faces of the highest and most spectacular peaks in the Sierra Nevada. Some of those mountains include Mulhacen (3,479m), Veleta (3,366m) and Alcazaba (3,371m). You will also get to see the area’s rich collection of valleys, rivers and more.

Originally built as a path connecting various mines in the mountains, the Vereda de la Estrella is beautiful, but also crowded at times. As a result, don’t be surprised if you see plenty of people throughout the day. But, rest assured that despite the collection of people, the views are absolutely worth it.

At the end of the first day, we will be staying in the comfortable Refugio de la Cucaracha. On the next day, after a good night’s rest, we will continue the hike.

Due to the length and elevation gain of this trek, it is important that participants on this trip are in good physical condition.

A wonderful trekking experience for anybody who wants to explore the Sierra Nevada Mountains of Spain, this 2-day trek on the Vereda de la Estrella is a trip you will never forget. To enjoy this adventure for yourself, please send a request.

Would you like to trek the summit of the beautiful Pico Veleta? If so, come and join us on this full day hike and enjoy some amazing views of the Sierra Nevada Mountains.

Thank you explore-share for a wonderful via feratta experience. We have been wanting to learn for a long time but don't have the facilities in Scotland. The guide Mitja was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, answering all my many questions and providing advice. On the day head to take another group but he quickly arranged another guide Borut, who was brilliant. We had a fantastic morning learning via ferrata at Hvadnik in the gorge. It gave us the confidence to later hire our own equipment and go out in Mojstrana. Altogether a five star + experience. Thank you.
