Tips from the Community

September 19, 2025, Fiñana

Fiñana is a perfect base for hikers between the Sierra Nevada and Los Filabres, with easy access via the A-92 and the train station. In the upper town, you can walk along the Moorish route to the Alcazaba and the cistern, and visit the unique Almohad mosque converted into the Hermitage of Our Father Jesus of Nazareth, as well as the Church of the Annunciation. From the village, trails depart to the northern slopes of the Sierra Nevada and the Nacimiento River valley, with waterfalls and sweeping views. In summer, bring water and a hat; the steep slopes and streets require well-soled shoes.

In Abla there is a historical walking tour that passes all the sights and is well marked. We liked Abla better than the “magic village” of Abrucena.
