We drove there, because we were making a trip through southern Spain through Córdoba, Seville e Granada.
The best time to go there is between 15 from January to end of March, it may be that in December you do not have a lot of snow, we got lucky and got enough snow and sun in the last week of the year.
The ski stations know (Valle Nevado - Chile, Panticosa – Spain e La Molina - Spain Pri also met Cerro Catedral in Bariloche , but do many years) Sierra Nevada was one of the most liked by many factors, we even made a video about there.
The station has several tracks, from basic to more difficult, with many kilometers long, all connected with lifts.
In means of the tracks at some points has restaurants and bars to eat and rest and enjoy the view, this is not only for those who go skiing, for who want to go only to see the track can afford 16 euros to use the lift and go up there.
The price is reasonable for skiing, more or less 45 Euro all day, and a half period 32 euros (from 13h).
At base station has a big city with a lot of hotels and restaurants. Here are the hotels that have in the Sierra Nevada.
In the city has bars to stay waiting for the person who is skiing if you do not ski, and would not climb the mountain.
It has a part that can walk on snow, and for those who like to Esquibunda.
It has several parking spaces, even has parking right out on the track, for those who already have all the equipment and know, good skiing, it out in the most difficult slopes.
Rental equipment is cheap, We found one by 10 euros the board and boots for snowboarding and more 5 euros if you want the helmet, which is super recommended.
Travel insurance it's very important, in travel and even more when you are thinking and doing a sport like skiing, make a quotation with our insurance partner.
