Useful tips
- If you're going for photos, arrive a little early since it gets crowded just before sunset.
- On the way down, it's better to avoid dark alleys and use main routes or buses.
- When planning your day, it can be hard to balance sunset photos with getting around safely. Since the official information describes it as a hilltop viewpoint in Albaicín, it's best to decide your way down and nearby bus stops in advance.
- Rather than stopping at the view, allow a little extra time to walk the surrounding lanes. Since many are narrow, leave bulky luggage at your accommodation and carry only a camera and water to move more easily.
