Full description
Moonlight, silence, snow and mountains.
Follow the trail of silver light between trails and snowy slopes on this night-time snowshoeing route in the Sierra Nevada. Your guide will lead you through the mountains while the landscape is tinged with cold reflections and the Mulhacén and the Veleta are outlined on the horizon.
3 hours to discover the night of the Sierra Nevada National Park. It will be absolutely unforgettable.
What we will do
The appointment is 30 minutes before the booking time at the meeting point in Monachil, Granada, the starting point of our night hike in the Sierra Nevada. The mountain guide will be waiting for us there, who will give us the necessary equipment (snowshoes and poles) and explain how to use them safely before starting the adventure.
With the moon as our companion and the silence of the mountain as our soundtrack, we will start walking on the snow. The guide will lead us along snowy paths and trails on a carefully studied route of about 6 kilometres with very little gradient. Along the way, the silvery moonlight will transform the landscape and the crunching of snowshoes will mark the rhythm of the night in the Sierra Nevada National Park.
Our objective will be to reach a place from where we can enjoy the night views and contemplate the silhouette of the Mulhacén or the Veleta. We will take a break to rest, have a bite to eat and contemplate the spectacle before starting the return journey. The excursion is carried out in safe and controlled conditions, designed to be enjoyed without haste and to let yourself be carried away by the magic of the winter moon.
The total duration of the experience is approximately 3 hours.
