Granada is, undoubtedly, one of the most beautiful capitals all over Spain. Dominated by the gorgeous Alhambra and Generalife Gardens, Granada’s special charm will amaze tourists who walk along the Paseo de los Tristes or decide to stroll along the steep streets in Albaicín. Granada is also known by its university and entertaining atmosphere. Thousands of visitors come to this astonishing place attracted by the wide variety of delicious tapas served free with drinks in bars and restaurants. Elvira Street is, without a hint of doubt, the main street to go for those who love to taste different tapas, where a wide range of souvenir stalls fill the place, and with the best Arab tea shops of Spain.
Granada is a must-see destination for the thousands of ski lovers who come every winter to practice this sport in Sierra Nevada. Many travelers choose the city of Granada as their headquarters. So, renting a car becomes a basic need for those wanting to move both to the ski slopes and to other places of interest in the province of Granada.
WHERE TO GO WITH YOUR RENTAL CAR
SPID-CAR wants to suggest a route to explore the province of Granada thanks to a rental car.
Our departure point is one of the most popular destinations in Granada: its ski station. In winter its white mountains invite those who are eager to enjoy a day in the snow. Hoya de la Mora, one of the most popular spots for star gazing in Spain, is located here too. In the warmer months Sierra Nevada is an idyllic place for hiking or riding a bike.
Drive along the road A-395 for 50 minutes, as the distance from the ski station and the center of Granada is about 36 kilometer. This amazing city and capital of the province is full of astonishing monuments, buildings, gardens, sculptures and many more artistic and emblematic places. Therefore, we recommend a “compulsory” visit to the incredible Alhambra, the Cathedral or enjoy the spectacular views from San Nicolas Viewpoint, Generalife Gardens or Albaicín district. Take this opportunity to taste the typical cuisine with the most delicious traditional dishes, such as beans with ham or “poor man’s potatoes” (patatas de pobre).
The next stop will be the beautiful Alhama de Granada. This charming location has everything you can think of: fantastic walks, homemade restaurants and a spa resort. We really recommend the spa resort, as it offers you circuits, massages, beauty treatments, hot spring pools and all kind of therapies to make it the perfect moment to only think about your needs and your life.
The distance between Granada and Alhama de Granada is about 60 kilometers. Go along the road A-92 and the road A-402, and the trip will never take you more than 57 minutes.
