The Beautiful Sierra Nevada Ski Resort
If you plan to spend some time in Mijas and the rest of Southern Spain, then you can expect plenty of sunshine with lots of time swimming in the sea and sunning yourself on the beach. One thing that you may not have thought of when thinking of Spain, is skiing! However, this is something that you can actually experience whilst still being close enough to enjoy the beach.
The Sierra Nevada is just two hours away from the village of Puebla Aida, in Mijas. That means you could leave your house at 7 am and be ready to ski by 9:30 am! What could be better than that?

Plenty Of Time To Ski
The Sierra Nevada can be translated to mean Snowy Mountain Range; the perfect name for what it offers. It has some of the highest peaks in Europe, so it sees plenty of snow and enjoys a long season, often extending from November to May.
A Cheaper Alternative
As it’s not one of the most recognised ski resorts in the world, the price of skiing in the Sierra Nevada is lower than other European resorts, making it ideal for trying it out with the family.
Great For Beginners
Thanks to the high altitude of the peaks, the majority of the skiing takes place in ski fields, rather than narrow tracks and they are above the tree line. So if you’re feeling nervous, or if you’re a beginner this is a more reassuring option.
A Touch Of Luxury
There are a whole host of fantastic places to unwind, relax, eat and stay throughout the Sierra Nevada. So, whether you’re just stopping off as part of your Southern Spain break or looking to stay for the long haul, you’re sure to have the best time possible.
