La Alpujarra is without doubt one of the most beautiful regions in Europe, let alone Spain.
With its Moorish architecture, and historical links back to the 1400s. There is something special about the mountains.
In winter you can ski in the high Sierra Nevada (November to April) and then drive down to the beaches of Salobrena and Almunecar and swim in the Mediterranean.

A view of the Sierra de Lujar from one of the properties in Orgiva advertised on www.rentinspain.co.uk What a great site to wake up to every morning of your holiday. Behind are views of the High Alpujarra.
And back to Orgiva
Upper Slopes of the Sierra Nevada
Looking back down towards the ski village. This is only a third of the way up to the higher slopes.This was taken in April when the upper slopes are still in use. It not uncommon to have a fresh layer of snow fall in late April. Thus exptecnding the season. Even more reason to visit the slopes in the morning and hit the beaches in the afternoon. I have seen snow up here in July. Cannot ski though!
