Sierra Nevada ski resort: The Sierra Nevada ski resort boasts the highest downhill runs in Europe as well as being the most southerly - so it often enjoys better snow than the Alps. It offers an excellent range of skiing for all levels. With plenty of access to ski-schools and tuition. The resort - with its superb services and installations was built for the Winter Olympics and has hosted many World ski championships and competitions. We are happy to help with tried and tested recommendations if skiers would like to organize private tuition, ski school etc. We can also, through personal experience recommend responsible outfitters for boot/ski hire (for example those who take time to ensure a proper fit to children's feet).

Ski: Skiing is available at the Sierra Nevada ski resort. At over 9000 ft it is one of the highest resorts in Europe and can be reached from Guejar Sierra within 20 mins. An international ski school is available on site. There are 70km of ski runs, 45 pistes (with more than enough variety to suit all levels), 300 snow machines and views of Africa from the top. This is the most southerly ski resort in Europe and, while smaller than some of the other major European resorts, the facilities are considered top rate and it has therefore hosted numerous national and international ski events. Wtth great family facilities on offer as well, Sierra Nevada defies many concepts associated with skiing. Located at barely a stone’s throw from the Mediterranean coast, it has practically guaranteed sunshine, the best spring snow conditions in Europe and is still reasonably priced compared to many of its European counterparts.

Golf: There are two golf courses in Granada and plenty more within reasonable driving distance such as the one at Motril on the Costa Tropical 9 holes). The 18 hole Granada Club de Golf is signposted from Armilla. No reservations necessary. Clubs can be hired and if you play in the morning, the cost for 18 holes is approximately 20 euros (more on Sundays and festivals).
