The Roadmap

Having a friend coming to visit us at a housesit in the south of Spain, high up in the mountains, I wanted to write out directions how to find us. This was the best that I could come up with:

Low road at red sands
Low road at red sands

Leave the town on the south side. Follow the tarmac road until you see a sign on your right saying: Welcome! (and more in Spanish).

From that sign, you drive along the road to the second big bend to the right. In the middle of that bend you turn left onto the dirtroad that goes off from there. You follow that dirtroad up the hill.

Turn left betw bush & bamboo
Turn left between bush and bamboo

When you come to a fork in the road covered in red sand, you take the lower road to the right rounding a ploughed field. You follow that dirtroad for about 2 kilometers.

About 25 meters after you reach the lowest part of the second slope, you turn left between the bush and the bamboo, onto another dirtroad.

Crossing with fig tree
Crossing with fig tree

You follow that dirtroad until you hit a T-junction with a figtree in the middle. Turn right here.

Follow this dirtroad until you reach a ruin on top of a hill. The road turns 90 degrees in front of the property. You STOP there.

Turn the car around and drive BACK on the same road you came up on. After about 10 meters you see a smaller dirtroad going off to the right. This path is the entrance to the house.

Now, see how your TomTom deals with that…

    “Follow the dirtroad to the figtree” yes…sounds like my kind of place. Love the photo above. Where is that magnificent view?

    Hi Liz, glad you like it! That magnificent view is from the top of the highest mountain (1400 meter) near a place called Murtas in Southern Spain. From that place you have a stunning 360 degree view over the Sierra Nevada. Sounds like you really like panorama’s, might want to check out my Sierra Nevada Panorama Photoalbum 2009.
