The 1250km GR7
White sand beaches, pine forests, semi-arid desert badlands, snow-capped peaks, fertile plains, traditional agricultural villages, lush expansive river valleys, olive groves, rolling hills of cork woodland: the GR7 in Andalucia takes you on a journey through the most geographically varied region on the Iberian peninsular. The fantastically varied route starts at the southernmost tip of Spain on the coast at Tarifa, and meanders for 268 km through the provinces of Cadiz and Malaga before dividing. The northern fork heads through Cordoba and Jaen provinces, whilst the southern fork passes through Almeria and Granada. Along the way, it passes through 7 stunning natural parks and the Sierra Nevada national park, home to mainland Spain's highest peak, Mulhacen. This is the first guide to cover the whole of the GR7 in Andalucia. It gives detailed route descriptions for around 70 full days of walking, and also offers options for creating shorter sections and days. There is information on all of the villages the route passes through, including accommodation, so that you can plan your own route
