Bubión
Halfway between Capileira and Pampaneira in the Poqueira gorge is the sleepy village of Bubión, which like its neighbours is surrounded by magnificent views of the often snow-capped Sierra Nevada peaks and the Alpujarras. Bubión is also a good base for walking and is on the GR7 long-distance footpath. A great place to just wander around the narrow streets and admire the local crafts and flower laden balconies.
Apart from a few craft shops, there is a small folk museum, the Casa Alpujarreña. The village of Bubion offers accommodation details and horse riding and hiking trips.
Hotel Villa de Bubión is set within the Sierra Nevada National Park, by the Poqueira Gorge. It offers an outdoor pool, free Wi-Fi in public areas and impressive views. It also has a restaurant, a bar-café and a 24-hour front desk.
Just outside the village is the purpose-built tourist complex, the Villa Turística, Tel: 958 763 909, with self-catering cottages, a swimming pool and a good restaurant. Casa La Sevillana is an attractive B&B in the village, while the cheapest option is the good-value Hostal Las Terrazas (Tel: 958 763 034) with exceptional views.
