Villages of Granada, Spain

While visiting the city of Granada I got a rental car to explore some noteworthy villages nearby: Soportújar and Pampaneira Pampaneira is a beautiful village that has fantastic views. I noticed a lot of hikers in the area so that must be one of the main draws besides the beautiful scenery. Soportújar is a really cute village to visit as well since it has a theme of witches and there are many fun things to discover around the town.

👍Pros: beautiful scenery and off the beaten path

🤔Cons: little far/difficult to get to from the city
