Mountain Biking
Surrounded by excellent tracks going in all directions: from the highest view points down to the dry (well, most of the time!) riverbeds snaking along the valleys, the mountain biking here is simply unsurpassed. With your only limits being the rare, fenced property - and perhaps your own stamina - you can safely explore the maze of tracks leading in all directions. You may meet a car on the tracks sometime during the day - but you could go the whole holiday without seeing another vehicle. Many airlines carry "bikes in bags" at small surcharges - just make sure they will fit in your hire car!
Climbing
Not far from Finca Fantastica is the climbing mecca of El Chorro. About 20-30 minutes to Alora and then another 20 minutes takes you to this splendid Natural Park. Particularly popular in the cooler months, the climbing fraternity has adopted El Chorro as the place to climb - from beginners to experienced climbers, there is something for all. Hardly any shops in El Chorro ... but there is a climbing one! Sells maps and climbing gear. A little closer is the still mostly undiscovered area of Abdalajis which offers great climbing as well. And if that isnt enough, about an hour away is El Torcal with its famous rock formations ....
