Barranquismo (Canyoning) looks fun. This guy certainly seemed to be enjoying it as he descended the waterfall at Tajo Cortes, Rio Bermejo, Alpujarra yesterday. I've spent a lifetime trying to avoid sl...

Plenty of water still coming down from the Sierra Nevada on this morning's dog walk. Long may it continue!

River walking with a lovely group of people from Norway today. Inside the dense, lush foliage the air was cool, was even colder in the waterfall! 😂 A classic hike for a hot Spanish day

Spring is in the air and so starts our Andalucia river walking season. Yesterday, we found a 6 km long stretch of river, a bit overgrown after the winter, but full of color, challenges and interest. G...

A tiring but worthwhile day today watering our olive trees the old way by flooding the land via the ancient system of irrigation channels. Fulfilling!

Water in the Rio Lanjarón and Acequia Nueva yesterday. No tripod, so attempted to slow down the water by hand holding down to 1/8th second. N.B An "acequia" " is an irrigation channel" that takes wate...

One of our regular hikes during the spanish summer is up the Rio Santos in the Lecrin Valley, south of Granada. Year-round water means deep, dense vegetation more reminiscent of the Amazon than ! Ther...

Came across this spring yesterday with remarkable cooling properties. The Fuente de Corcuela at Moclin. I suspect originally built by it's wonderfully creative Arabic originators. It might have been 3...

I love these village "fuentes" you find in the villages of the Alpujarra in rural Spain. Built in times long gone by. You just can't beat the sound of running water, especially in these difficult time...

"Acequias" flowing freely this morning. Don't think it will be long before they start to dry up though. Love the way the light has created small rainbows to the left of the falls.
