We ascended at the beginning of May: I would suggest to still have winter hiking gear (ice axe/poles and crampons) though the easiest south-south-east trail is very gradual and potentially doable without but you can save yourself some time and nerves. There are many bivouacs around and we met a guy who spent the night bivouacing but we stayed at the poqueira cottage and it was like 9 of us (weekday and this time of year). They told me the hike can get crowded in summer because you can use a minibus for approach and once a year the road on mulhacen is open to public (there is a holy mass) . In seems from previous reviews that we were not the only victims of capricious weather: hail storm with lightning and we had nowhere to hide on top.

Beautiful Mount Mulhacén was still covered with snow when we visiting Alhambra - Granada 🇪🇸 in April 20204 👌

Spain’s Mulhacén, the giant of the Sierra Nevada range, is the highest mountain in Western Europe outside the Alps. At 11,413 feet (3,479m), it makes for a long trek, but it can be tackled in a day. If you start from the Mirador de Trevélez, where a shuttle bus will take you to in the summer, the 7.5-mile (12km) hike will take about six hours. The terrain is rocky and barren all the way up, as there’s no water on the mountain after the snow melts. However, you will likely see herds of death-defying Spanish ibex, who will sniff around for a snack as you sit on the summit. You’ll also be treated to sweeping views over the Mediterranean and the Andalucían city of Granada in the valley below.

Made a winter solo on December fifth, 2019. It takes me 5,5 hours to the summit from Trevelez, about 9,5 hours for a whole route Trevelez-Mulhacen-Trevelez (descent could be faster). Route is technically easy it was still not too much snow (but according to forecast it will be a good snowfall soon). I didn't have a ice axe with me, only trekking poles and crampons. Crampons is strongly recommended (route possible without them), but it will become more risky and harder. Ice axe/poles is optional, but recommended. I wore crampons approximately at 3150-3170m. Started half an hour before sunrise, up to Mulhacen II the weather was perfect, but then comes a milky mist with poor vision. I have reached the summit approximately at 1pm, on the descent up to 2700-2800 it was a awful vision, so I used my former steps and garmin watches to navigate back. Lower than 2700 weather becomes good again and I even made few pictures of Ibex because I had a daytime vision limit more...

Cima de 3.479 m (la más alta de la Península Ibérica).

Se puede subir desde varios puntos de inicio siendo el más habitual (y fácil) a través de un servicio de bus que sale desde Capileira (unos 14€/ida-vuelta) hasta el Alto del Chorrillo, lo que permite salvar buena parte del desnivel y afrontar la cima en una excursión de apenas 2-3h (ida) y 1.5-2h (vuelta) con un desnivel razonable (menos de 1000 m).

También se puede subir directamente desde Capileira por el barranco de Poqueira (pasando por el refugio guardado) o desde Trevélez vía las 7 lagunas.

En ambos casos el desnivel a salvar es del orden de 2.000 m y la distancia total (ida/vuelta) supone más de 20 km (entre 7 y 10h) y sólo apto para personas con un estado de forma razonable.

En ningún caso es una ascensión técnica (en condiciones de verano), hay que tener en cuenta el parte meteorológico (meteorología cambiante, fruto de la alta montaña) y estimar que en la cima suele haber entre unos 10 y 12 °C menos que en Trevélez o Capileira (algo a considerar en la ropa de abrigo a llevar en la mochila).

No es una ruta en la que abunde el agua (en la subida a Trevélez, el último punto de recogida de agua es en las Chorreras Negras, antes de llegar a la laguna).

Se recomienda llevar ropa de abrigo, agua en abundancia (pocas sombras), protección solar, chubasquero, etc.

Las vistas desde la cima son realmente espectaculares si el día es bueno (soleado y con visibilidad) pudiéndose ver el Mediterráneo e incluso África.

Si no dispones de condición física, es recomendable subir mediante el bus de Capileira.

La subida desde Capileira (vía refugio) o desde Trevélez requieren una cierta condición física por el desnivel a salvar, especialmente. Es recomendable no empezar a caminar más tarde de las 8h para evitar que la noche se nos eche encima.

Sobre las condiciones, es habitual encontrar nieve entre octubre y finales de junio. Algo a tener en cuenta por la necesidad de emplear crampones y piolet. En invierno la ascensión no es difícil, pero hay que llevar el equipo adecuado y tener experiencia en su uso, así como mirar con atención el parte meteorológico y la previsión...
