Sierra de las Nieves - circular route - Puerto Saucillo - Cueva tres Puertas - Cueva del Agua

Stunning route at the National Park Sierra de las Nieves, from Puerto de Saucillo, Yunquera, through mountain passes, Pinsapo forests, caves and lookouts with spectacular views

To reach our starting point, we enter the Sierra de las Nieves from Yunquera, as the drive from the coast is beautiful. We drive up to Puerto de Saucillo, 1117 metres above sea level, in the heart of the National Park. It is a route of exceptional beauty, with a great variety of landscapes, vegetation and views. We pass through a forest of Spanish firs with some very curious specimens. The hike is not extremly demanding, however, you must bear in mind that it is a rocky mountain path with a steep pass to cross.
