Great ride in the cable car, worthy experience, breathtaking scenery. Even more beautiful in winter, but worth a trip during the summer too.

Well managed and thoroughly equipped ski resort, it's the closest to Lisbon worthy of the name despite being about 8 hours away.
Its low ceiling and geographical location down south Europe, makes snow a bit scarce throughout the ski season but management tries by every means possible to shuffle snow around, therefore always making a few tens of kms suitable.

Are you looking for a place to go skiing/snowboarding which is close to Granada? Here you can find the best slopes, from very easy ones to very hard ones. There are maaaaany slopes, you probably won't be able to do all of them in one day. So I suggest you to come at least for two days. The prices are a bit high, but IT IS WORTH!! For sure it's worth it!
It's always veeery busy during the weekend, I suggest to go during the week. And if you take an apartment at the top is the best option, as the line of the cars that in the morning go up is very long. Same happens when you want to go down. You need to be a little patient.
But it is ALL worth it!!

Great family ski resort, but it has little to challenge advances skiers. You can link up a lot of red runs to make about 1km of vertical drop, which isn't too bad... but then you need a gondola, a chairlift, and a t-bar to get back to the top.
I would recommend it for those with young families, but probably not for more advanced ski groups. The downside is that the green-run lifts get very busy, but if you ski red or above then you can find yourself on a piste all by yourself... even during UK mid-term holidays.
When we came it was very warm for three weeks prior, so it's amazing they had snow at all. They seem to have hundreds of snow cannons to keep the place running, but it was very icy in some places. Talking to other skiers, this year was very unusual, and normally there is heaps of snow. Either way, we were happy with the quantity and quality considering the weather.
Just look at those sunny blue skies!
If you book a hotel, get one near the gondolas, or you will have to trudge up hill or queue for the chair lift... and then slog it the rest of the way. That's not fun when you're tired and in ski boots. Good for the cardio though!

We only went for the day, not being ski people, I just wanted to throw a snowball and build a snowman. A lot bigger place than I had imagined. A whole village. Lots of shops and places to eat or grab a beer. We had a brilliant day.
