The Route of the Nazrids
... A great way to start the day. After all this food we feel the need for some exercise and head off into the hills on one of the trails leading directly from the hotel. We choose the Puerto del Tejo trail, which, according to the signpost is an hours walk there and and an hour back. The walk this morning was an assault on the senses.
