Day 17 of #30diasenbici what the?!??? The first ti Day 17 of #30diasenbici what the?!??? The first time I’ve seen the river with actual water in Melilla. A few hundred meters upstream is the border so this is probably mostly runoff from Morocco. It’s been raining heavily overnight the last few days and it’s great to see it in flow.

“Rest” day. I made an attempt on Mulhacen leav “Rest” day. I made an attempt on Mulhacen leaving in the dark. I got a bit lost on the way up but at about 2500m my legs said no more, please no more. So I slowly, slowly climbed down, slid into the tent, had a sleep then in the afternoon had a look around town, had a few cold ones and some superb local jamón.

I needed a rest so I headed over to the campsite f I needed a rest so I headed over to the campsite for a 2 night stay. As the site is on the side of a mountain they have several tiers going up from the office. I headed up the hill to the tier they gave me but it was a small space already seemingly full of other campers. The one open space had a car parked next to it. Me no likey. So, I had a look around and found another tier that had no campers or cars at all. So I went back down and asked if I could move to the empty tier, sure no problem. Happy camper.

Trevélez. Not the highest village in mainland Spa Trevélez. Not the highest village in mainland Spain, but not far off. It sits at about 1500m which means it has a dry climate, which means it is perfect for...jamón. Oh yes, the famous Spanish cured ham has a home here and the village pays homage to the jamón with hundreds of big and tiny jamón monuments all over the village, on the bridges, on the walls...everywhere, and the smell, for me, heaven. Oh, and it sits below 2 of the highest peaks in mainland Spain - Mulhacen (3481m) and Alcazaba (3371m).

Fuente, I'm sure I´ve mentioned this word a milli Fuente, I'm sure I´ve mentioned this word a million times and I will do it a million times more. One of my favourites is this one. On a bend in the road with towering cliff sides behind it and some green, a huge willow tree, stark against the dryness and brownness of the surrounding landscapes. The sound of water and a burst of life as you approach, birds, insects, particularly wild bees, wagging their abdomens along the water's edge, surround the oasis. I do like the birds, dunk myself in. Icy cold relief.

Each bend in the road offered amazing landscapes where tiny white washed pueblos can be seen perched on the cliffside. It is also the perfect place to be in summer.
