Description

The Sendero Sulayr is the longest circular footpath in Spain. It passes through pine forests, mountain villages, pastures, and meadows for more than 300 km. The community of Guejar Sierra, accessible by bus from Granada, provides an access point to the trail. Several shorter routes intersect the main route and lead to summits or other towns. Mountain shelters provide protection in some areas, but hikers should also plan to spend nights in rustic campgrounds. The Mediterranean Sea is visible from the southern slopes, and from the northern peaks, the countryside extends to the horizon.
