Amazing! - Julio and Marcel were incredible guides. They took care of everything transport, some water and a snack. The tour was excellent and Sierra Nevada is stunning. They looked after the group ensuring the pace was perfect for the whole group. Some sections are narrow, but they supported you and showed you how to get through. I would suggest bringing extra water. Photos were taken by Julio. I can't wait to see them as a momento of a fab morning. 8:30am slot was the best for temperature.

A beautiful immersion in nature - Julio is an experienced and attentive Guide. He explained many things characteristic of the route, plants and vegetation, local fauna, climate and more. It was an easy path and suitable for everyone but still with some little challenging to face. Julio also established a highly valued personal relationship with all participants. Well done!

Beautiful hike with Marcello! - Beautiful ride not too difficult and superb scenery. Our Guide was very kind and friendly. Award may be a bit high, but it's worth it! Marcello takes beautiful photos for us and knows the path and flora of the place!

Fantastic experience! - Fantastic hike less than 30 minutes outside of Granada! Our tour guide Julio was excellent. Very knowledgeable of the terrain, area, and vegetation. Julio also takes courtesy photos for the group so you can keep your hands free. Los Cahorros de Monachil is a beautiful scenic hike. Our teens loved the suspension bridges and hiking along the river bed. It is a great opportunity not to miss during your visit!

Relief - This was one of the highlights for us in terms of nature experience.
The flowing water is a grateful change in the rather arid landscape that typifies the surroundings.

Fantastic way to explore some of Spain's natural landscape - An absolutely fantastic experience.
Julio was friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. The route itself was perfect - generally not too difficult, but with some more challenging sections so it never got dull! The scenery was incredible, and even though I'm not a seasoned hiker, I enjoyed this route immensely.
A perfect activity for those visiting the area and looking for something a little different. 100% recommended!

Hiking in Monachil - This was a last-minute booking for our group and SO GLAD we did it. Julio and Marcelo were great guides. Weather was rainy but not enough to cancel. Don't let the talk of narrow trails or having to scoot over ledges stop you. Our group is 65+ and we had no issues. Lots of fun. National Park (Monachil) is beautiful so a great way to spend 5-6 hours.

Owl ballad - All right. Nice training ride to more difficult ballads. To do at the beginning of the stay. This walk allows you to get into the Andalusian spirit from the Check-out without any particular difficulty.
