The Sierra Nevada Ski Resort in Granada Province is less than two hours drive from Nerja and is the best and largest ski resort in Spain. Sierra Nevada, which hosted the 1996 world Championships, has over a 100km of pistes ranging from the impossibly steep World Cup Downhill runs to a huge selection of easy learner pistes.

If you don’t want to ski, you can also take a day trip up there to have a wander round the picturesque snow covered landscape.
