The
Valle of happiness...
is one of the least developed
valleys in Andalucia, where the donkey is still a familiar means of transport
– and the locals measure their olive crop in donkey loads.
The Valley is extremely
fertile, thanks to the snow which melts high up on the Sierra Nevada in
spring
and feeds the many rivers and streams below.
Acequias
is
a small Andalucian village with a
population of around 180 people in the little-known but spectacularly
beautiful Valley of Lecrin in the far south of Spain. Known to the Moors
as the Vale of Happiness, the Valley is not far from Granada and a short
drive from the sea.
This unspoilt and tranquil village on the edge of one of Europe’s
finest National Parks nestles on the south-western flank of the majestic
Sierra Nevada, the peaks of which have fantastic views of the Mediterranean
towards Africa..

Acequias is a rural Andalucian
village only 25 minutes from Granada, 30 minutes from the Costa Tropical
with its selection
of lovely beaches and 60 minutes from the international ski resort Sol
y Nieve. This old Moorish
village is set back in the hills and overlooks the valley of Lecrin renowned
for its orange and lemon groves that give off the most
wonderful scents. Fed by mountain springs, the lake nearby is good for
swimming and lazy picnics.
