Hi Richard just to say thanks very much. Yesterday was fantastic and Jose was a brilliant guide. He showed us so many wonderful things that we would have overlooked otherwise. He was very considerate, paced it well, and had great humour. The walk will be highly recommended to others. Thanks again, it was a highlight of Spain and a wonderful day.

Hi, I've had the most amazing time the past couple of days. I can't speak highly enough about Victoria & the mountains, just wow! Excited to look through the pics, thank you for the link, had such a good time, especially loved the waterfall detour, great walk and I want to be a mountaineer now from hearing of your adventures!

I just wanted to thank you, your dad Richard, Kiersten, my wonderful guide Jens and yourself for your endless patience and responsiveness over email! From the cheery greeting at Granada Airport (despite them having to wait several hours due to my delayed flight) to the fascinating chat and obvious care and professionalism Richard and Kiersten got my trip of to a fantastic start.

Right from the first email response to my enquiry about arranging a trek through to the hike itself Spanish Highs was exemplary! They kindly arranged me a transfer from Granada Airport - and the cheery welcome, despite them having to wait several hours due to my delayed flight certainly got my trip of to a great start. I discovered my ‘driver’ was in fact the fascinating Owner of the company Richard and his partner Kiersten. The obvious care, professionalism and extensive knowledge they were able to impart about both the area and it’s majestic mountain ranges as well the more technical information about their work engendered reassurance and made me very excited about my hike to the summit of Mulhacern the next day

Fantastic, fun day hiking to Trevenque peak, taking in the majestic view, and then exploring the Cumbras Verdes. Jens is an expert guide who knows these mountains and trails and is great company. Richard and his staff are professional and attentive. Highly recommended!

I just want to thank you for being the professionals you are. Your communication and accommodation -- and patience -- is most appreciated. There's a TripAdvisor review up now. Mulhacen will be for another day. Trevenque was a fun alternative. Jens is a terrific guide and good company. Thank you for connecting us.

Just writing to let you know what a great experience we had on the course. We not only learned a great deal, we also had a wonderful time. I have to give particular credit to Jens. Over the decades, I've done a number of alpine climbing courses in Scotland, the Alps and the US, but I have to say (and I'm not exaggerating) that I learned more from Jens than all the rest of the guides I've had combined. And in addition to being patient, thorough and concise, he was also fantastic company.

I'd wanted to see those hills and hike across them and Kiersten was the perfect guide to show me how and where. From village to village as I'd hoped, with lots of varied terrain and some excellent naturalist observations. Thank you Kiersten and Richard for a marvellous day.

Highlights of the GR7 through Las Alpujarras. We spent a fabulous day walking 'La Taha' with Kiersten - through white villages, up and down La Aplujarra paths, past beautiful flowers (including wild orchids!) and hidden waterfalls. Kiersten was an excellent guide, who picked us up outside Orgiva and led us on the walk. She was knowledgeable without being a know-it-all (!), we really enjoyed chatting with her along the route, and she was flexible - taking off the main route to find waterfalls to have our lunch next to and to see beautiful unusual flowers. Thanks for a great day of stunning views!
