Highest Mountain in Spain - where water flows uphill!
Mulhacén is the highest mountain in mainland Spain at 3479m. We climbed this in early March 2019. There has been very little snow this year so we could get to the summit without the need for crampons or ice axe - though we did use them on our descent by a different route. Stunning scenery and very few other people on the mountain.

We used this guidebook by Richard from Spanish Highs:
Mountain Biking Sierra Nevada with Ride Southern Spain

Sierra Nevada is located in Southern Spain which has warm weather all year round. Mountain Biking in the area is gaining momentum and the local Mayer being a rider him self, is having new mountain bike trails built across these huge mountains.
The Trails are high alpine and offer some really long technical, fast riding. You can also find more mellow xc trails with aimed towards novice/intermediate riders. From casual scenic riding to your EWS style tech trails this place has a lot going for it!
Ride Southern Spain is owned by Andy and Juliette who have all the bases covered. Airport transfers,Food, Uplifts and Guiding have you want for nothing else! You can sip Sangria by the pool, Chill out at the local spa or go Mountain Biking, Road cycling or Rock climbing (all very close to the chalet)

Solo in the Sierra Nevada
Long day out in the high mountains of the Sierra Nevada. This is such an amazing place for high treks and seems to be very much under-used especially in the off-season. I did actually cross paths with one couple and saw a handful more over on the summit of Caballo but otherwise, I had the mountains to myself. I'm sure that on the same day, a Sunday in March, even in miserable weather there would have been way more people in the Reeks in Kerry or the Peaks in the UK.
I did over 25km and 1800m of ascent, mostly on easy terrain. I did scramble a little bit but I could have bypassed this. The guidebook route is 17.5km and 1400m of ascent. There is very little snow this year compared to previous years but an axe and crampons are advisable.
I followed a route in a book called Walking and Trekking in the Sierra Nevada by Richard Hartley - Route 10 - Pico del Tajo de los Machos and Cerillo Redondo and added on an out and back to Refugio Forrestal Elorrieta. If you want a guide Richard runs a trekking company called Spanish Highs.

Europe's most Southerly 3000m Peak - Cerro de Caballo, Sierra Nevada
A stunning mountain in perfect weather conditions. Cerro de Caballo is the most southerly of the Sierra Nevada's 23 summits over 3000m in altitude. We drove up from Lanjaron to a height of about 2000m and climbed to the summit from there.

Sometimes skiing uphill is easier than downhill!
First time ski tourers in the Sierra Nevada find this out the hard way as they have a tough first days backcountry skiing! In mitigation for the abysmal skiing it must be stated that they were some of the most difficult mountain conditions for skiing. Filmed on Cerrillo Redondo above Puente Palo February 2011
