Sport Fishing

The province has 64 fishing reserves within the Nature Parks of Cazorla, Segura, Las Villas and Sierra Nevada that harbor mainly trout, pike and black bass. As an avid fisherman, I’ve tried my luck in a number of these dams and rivers and found that, by and large, the fishing here pales in comparison to the north. But, there is one exception and that is the trout-happy waters of the Río Frío in the foothills of the Sierra de Loja, midway between Granada city and Málaga.

Ski Resort

There is also an ice-skating rink at Pradollano. Trails are numerous for snowmobiles, which can be rented at the Sol y Nieve ski resort. Non-skiers can also opt for the telecabina (7 Euro) that departs from Pradollano and culminates at Borreguiles.
