El Chullo
During this hike we climb El Chullo, with its 2,611 metres the highest peak of the province of Almería. The first part is a climbing of about 700 metres to this top, which is not difficult because of the good wide trails and the graduate ascent. From the summit of El Chullo on one side we have a beautiful view over the province of Almería, on the other side we can observe the considerably higher peaks of the Sierra Nevada in the province of Granada. After the summit the scenery becomes more interesting when we descend to the Laguna Seca (“Dry Lake”) – a lake that loses its water in summer - past remarkable rock formations. On the second part of the route we walk through comfortable trails back to the Puerto de la Ragua.
