One of the sections with the most beautiful views of the hiking trail GR 7 is the crossing of the Alpujarras on the southern side of Sierra Nevada. Here the traces of the former Moorish domination can be seen. Small, white houses with flat roofs nestled on the slopes of the mountains, are reminiscent of Moroccan Atlas villages. The terraced hillsides, and sophisticated irrigation systems, have transformed the harsh mountain landscape in a flower garden. This made possible the cultivation of lemons, oranges, figs, chestnut trees and other Mediterranean fruits and vegetables.

There are nearly 200 lakes in that wild mountain region of Catalan National Park Aigüestortes i Estany Sant Maurici, more than in all the rest of Pyrenees.
The granite rocks were modeled by glaciers many millions of years ago, after defrosting they left behind countless mountain lakes. The number of this increased decades ago due to building dams for use of water energy.
The hike from hut to hut reveals this singular natural scenery, each day different valleys, lakes, granite needles and blocks. In summer countless botanical treasures flourishes on the meadows and lakesides of the National Park, it’s possible to watch a diverse wildlife.
