I spent five days walking with Richard and his team at Spanish Highs at the end of October/beginning of November 2013. I wanted a trip that would take me off the tourist trail, provide stunning scenery and an invigorating hike but allow me to return to a comfortable bed at the end of each day and a decent glass of red wine and tapas. Over my five days we hiked:
Taha del Pitres High Forests of the Alpujarras Tabernas Desert walk Trevenque
The trip excelled and met every expectation. It was very well organized and Richard gave me great advice pre-trip as to what kit I needed, weather conditions and the likely terrain. He devised a trip to suit my wish of tackling several different types of landscape, giving real variety and an insight into this often overloked part of Spain. Both Richard and his guides were extremely knowledgeable about the Sierra Nevada and interesting to talk to. At the end of the day, over a glass of red or a beer, it was great to hear their tales and experiences from many years living and hiking this part of Spain .
I would thoroughly recommend Spanish Highs and taking any of their walking tours in Andalucia in this beautiful part of Spain.
