    It takes about 40 minutes to hike up from the city center. I recommend starting about an hour before sunset. You can also go to the back of the lookout point, where there are beautiful views of the snow-capped mountains and hiking trails. I think this lookout point is the best attraction in Granada besides the Alhambra.

    Really a nice place to come to watch the sunset. Unfortunately there were a bit too many clouds when we went but it was still a nice view.
