Pampaneira is a village located in the province of Granada, Spain. According to the 2005 census (INE), the village has a population of 355 inhabitants. It is one of three mountain villages of the Barranco de Poqueira in the Alpujarras region. The other two villages, Bubión and Capileira, are located higher in the Poqueira gorge. The Poqueira gorge starts below the mountain peak of Mulhacén, where the river Poqueira rises. There are many opportunities for hiking in the area. Guided walks are arranged by the local tourist offices which also sell mountain hiking equipment. Other companies can plan self-guided treks through the area. The nearest major town is Órgiva. One of the highest all year-round lived-in mountain village in Spain, Trevélez is located nearby in the mountains to the east of the three villages. Accommodation is available in all of the three villages but Capileira has the biggest range of facilities. At the north side opens the Sierra Nevada (Spain) range with one of the highest peaks in Spain; Mulhacén and Alcazaba (Sierra Nevada). The village is located at about 1060 metres above sea level. There are many craft shops selling ceramics, leather and clothes. Also on offer are the locally produced specialities of cheese and ham. During the winter the Sierra Nevada and the Alpujarra mountains get covered in snow but the villages are rarely affected by snow for more than a few days a time. There are bus connections running every day from the town of Granada, Spain.

Origins

El topónimo de la localidad se escribía anteriormente en español con la grafía Pampaneyra,​​ actualmente en desuso y desaconsejada por la RAE por su carácter arcaizante.

History

El municipio pampanurrio comprende únicamente el núcleo de población de Pampaneira —capital municipal—, así como los diseminados de Barranco Hondo, Centro Budista de la Atalaya, El Ciprés, La Cuesta, Fuente los González, La Loma, El Olivar, Los Pajarillos, Partidor, Rosas Altas y Las Suertes.​

Todo su término lo ocupa el parque nacional y natural de Sierra Nevada. Desde el año 2013 Pampaneira forma parte de la asociación Los Pueblos Más Bonitos de España, siendo uno de los catorce pueblos que la iniciaron, y el primer pueblo en acceder a esta asociación en Granada.

Festivals

Entierro de la zorra: El día de la Santa Cruz culmina con esta tradición. La zorra es una especie de muñeco que se hace con papel o pieles y se rellena y ajusta con cohetes. Mientras suena la música y se escuchan los cánticos, se pasea por todo el pueblo, hasta que llega al lugar donde va a ser quemada. Esta costumbre también pone el broche final a las fiestas de agosto.
