Walking and Trekking in the Sierra Nevada : 38 walks, scrambles and multi-day traverses by Richard Hartley

A guidebook to 30 day walks and 2-day excursions, 5 high mountain scrambles and three longer multi-day routes in Spain's Sierra Nevada. Routes are graded by difficulty: all call for good fitness and hillwalking experience, and the more demanding options involve navigational challenge, prolonged ascents, remote rugged mountain terrain and scrambling. The walks range from 5 to 38km (3-24 miles) and from 3 hours to 2-3 days. The scrambles are graded from Grade 2 to 3S. Also included are a 3-7 day traverse of the range's 3000m peaks, a 3-day traverse of the 3 highest peaks ('Los Tres Picos') and an overview of the 302km (188 mile) Sulayr GR240. Clear route description illustrated with 1:50,000 mapping (1:100,000 and 1:250,000 for the longer treks)Photo topos showing the line of the scramblesGPX files available for downloadInformation on water sources, plus additional notes for winter mountaineersIncludes ascents of Mulhac?n, mainland Spain's highest summit
