Hiking from the Spanish mountain village Capileira (1500 m) to Mulhacén (3482 m) and back to Capileira in one day, February 28th 2023, Sierra Nevada, the south of Spain.
A 34 km hike and +2000 height meters.
I started hiking at 8 AM and and was back at 1 AM, 17 hours later.
The last five hours I hiked with a headlamp. The temperature at the top was minus 15 degrees Celsius.
Mulhacén is the Iberian Peninsula's highest mountain. In mainland Western Europe, only higher mountain peaks are found in the Alps.
