Hôtels en Les Alpujarra, Espagne

Les Alpujarras stretches across the southern slopes of Spain's Sierra Nevada, famous for its whitewashed Berber-style villages and ancient irrigation channels that date back to Moorish times. The climate ranges from mild winters around 50°F (10°C) to hot summers near 80°F (27°C), so you can ski at the nearby Sierra Nevada resort in January or hike the Poqueira Gorge in May when wildflowers bloom. Villages like Pampaneira, Bubión, and Capileira each have a different feel-lower ones stay warmer for winter walks, higher ones offer cool summer escapes-and you can taste local jamón serrano or olive oil straight from the terraced hillsides.
