Climbing the peak of Trevenque in the Cumbres Verdes, Granada

Guest writer, Ian Tupman, describes an hike to the summit of this wonderful peak in the foothills of Spain’s Sierra Nevada mountains, just SE of the city of Granada. Not having done any serious hill walking in February and March, I wanted to get out and do a good leg and lung-stretcher before returning to [...]

The hidden gems of Trevenque in the Cumbres Verdes mountains near Granada

Since we started visiting this fascinating walking and trekking location near Granada in 1998, we have seen a rise in the popularity of peaks such as the magnificent Trevenque (2079m). However, there is so much more than the normal routes of ascent to offer for those with an exploratory and adventurous nature.

This has for many years been a favourite mountain ascent of ours. Situated in the glorious Cumbres Verdes south east of Granada it is a shapely mountain with the best summit in the Sierra Nevada.   In summer the west ridge provides an easy scramble to Trevenque’s 2079m sharp summit and is the best line [...]

Trevenque. The best summit in the Sierra Nevada?

Trevenque (2079m) is an old favourite. We have known this peak in all weathers, at all times of the year. It stands isolated and proud on the outskirts of Granada in the Cumbres Verdes range of hills. It is not linked by ridges to any other peak, has the ideal mountain profile and has one [...]

Deep snow last weekend enabled the ski centre to re-open after the official ending of the season. That means we get another weeks skiing. The snow is thick and deep above 2700m. We have been on Trevenque (2000m) in the Cumbres Verdes today, where the route over the summit was affected by powder snow. To [...]

Day started with 15cm powder down to 1700m. With high temps this was very quickly melting throughout the day. Freezing level up as high as 2750m. Good news is that overnight the temps at the Sierra Nevada ski centre dropped to -7 and tonight will be even lower -9!
