What To Expect

Huerta de San Vicente Casa Museo de Federico Garcia Lorca
We left our meeting point in La Caleta, where the bikes will be delivered to those who do not have one and we will head towards La Huerta de San Vicente, the García Lorca family's summer house between 1926 and 1936. In it Federico García Lorca wrote, all and part of some of his main works, Bodas de sangre (1932) and Yerma (1934). The poet lived in the Huerta de San Vicente the days before his arrest and murder in August 1936, at the beginning of the Spanish civil war.

After the guided tour, we departed by bike from Granada along the Genil river. We continue through the towns of Purchil and Belicena with their old tobacco drying rooms, towards Santa Fé, the Cradle of Hispanidad and pionono, a typical sweet. Santa Fé was a military camp established by the Catholic Monarchs for the final assault on the Nasrids of the Kingdom of Granada. The encampment city was built in just eighty days, including several towers, walls, and a moat around it, as well as four gates that still survive today. We continue through the village of El Jau, and continue along a narrow road flanked by the poplar groves in their autumn dress. We enter Lorquian lands ...

Casa Museo Federico Garcia Lorca Valderrubio
Federico García Lorca was born in Fuente Vaqueros, his birthplace is now also a museum, and at the age of 7 Federico and his family moved to Valderrubio, our next and last destination. In Valderrubio, formerly called La Asquerosa, Federico lived from 7 to 11 years old and here he spent many summers after moving to Granada. It was in this town where he completed his literary apprenticeship, where he wrote some of his main works of youth, and where he was later inspired to give the theater one of his best dramatic works, La casa de Bernarda Alba.
