Torvizcon is the the largest and most important village in La Contraviesa. It is self-sufficient, traditional and unspoilt . It has a reputable school, a hotel, a pension, a bank, a pharmacy, a couple of supermarkets and a couple of restaurants. It also has a municipal swimming pool and even an excellent furniture shop. La Contraviesa is the mountain range in Las Alpujarras between the Sierra Nevada and the Mediterranean Sea. It is well known for its elaboration of wine,"Vino de la Tierra" or "Vino Costa", and its almond groves. People from all over Spain come to visit these hills around January/February when the almond trees are in blossoms. Wine tasting is another pursuit. Historically, vineyards have always played an important part in the economy of this region. The Arabs exported currants and sultanas grown here all over the world from the ports of Malaga and Motril. La Contraviesa is dotted with beautiful, some sleepy, villages such as Gualchos, Lujar, Polopos, Sorvilan, Albondon, Rubite, Albunol, Almegijar, Notaez, Cadiar, Berchules etc. Until recently this area was undiscovered and so has remained unspoilt by tourism. Many sporting activities are at hand: paragliding, horseback riding, rambling, trekking, climbing, mountain biking etc. Classes of art, photography, dancing, music, yoga and languages are available within a short radius. |
