Itinerary description
This is day 2 of a 2 day hike through Las Alpujarras, south of Sierra Nevada, Granada. This segment of the trail goes through several beautiful Alpujarras villages, great views, orchards, and the Portichuelo de Cástaras (not in the original plan, as we took a wrong turn in Busquistar that made the trail 8km longer). This segment starts in Ferreirola and ends at the Alquería de Morayma. This trail is listed in the Lonely Planet Hiking in Spain guide.

La equivocación en Busquistar valió la pena por lo espectacular del paisaje que nos tocó ver.
El paseo en total ha sido muy variado,agradable,duro a veces pero inolvidable. Recomiendo tener un buen guía como fué mi caso.
