Walking in Andalucia

Fourteen Solihull Ramblers had a fabulous week of walking in Andalucia Spain in May. Everything about this holiday was really wonderful - perfect weather, magnificent scenery, great hotel and lovely walks to suit all abilities each day.

Ramblers Worldwide did us proud supplying us with excellent leaders, lovely accommodation and interesting days out. As part of this holiday we visited the Nerja Caves which were incredible and also had a day visiting Granada and the Alhambra palace which was amazing. Needless to say they all had a really good time.
