 '''Granada''' is a main city in [[Andalusia]], a region in [[Spain]].
== Hitchhiking out ==
=== Northeast towards [[Valencia]], [[Barcelona]] ===
 
Get any of the entrances next to the A44 and use the direction of Lorca/ Guadix (A92 and later A91). Best thing would be to wait for someone who actually is going into that direction since the A44 crosses the A92 after 5-10 minutes.
=== East towards [[Murcia]], [[Valencia]], West towards [[Sevilla]], [[Málaga|Malaga]] ===
Go with the bus '''122'''(Timetables http://terapiaquantica.es/linea_autobuses.pdf) from ''Caleta'' or ''Estacion de Autobuses'' to the first stop in Albolote, walk there about 5 mins towards the A92, which is the Motorway between Sevilla and Murcia, take a view on the right and choose the petrol station that leads you the direction you want to go. It is a really good spot, takes between 2 minutes and 8 hours. Direction Sevilla there is one more of the good petrol stations, right after Lorca. The other way you have one directly when you come close to guadix, might be like exit 296.
June 2013- From Granada bus station- walk away from Take the centre crossing two roundabouts until you reach a petrol station. Managed to get a hitch from here to a 'better' petrol station close metro to the last stop "Albolote in about 10 minutes", then walk north towards the highway (ca. Waited at this petrol station for 2 1/2 hours with no real luck, this -3 km). There is a big petrol gas station with a restaurant but it is just before on the road splits into those heading for Murcia (our destination) and Madrid- everybody here is going to Madrid. Walked further down the road and came to a roundabout which splits left handside of the road (before a bridge), this spot would definitely have people going in over the right direction but highway. It is slightly dangerous. We were low on time so sadly had to abort the mission- but did manage to get a hitch from the roundabout back to Granada in 10 minutesreally good spot. We were also told that the traffic was a bit slower at Direction Sevilla there is one more of the good petrol station because it was Sundaystations, right after Lorca.  
Works not so good in direction Malaga.
Direction Malaga is completely Spanish typical. That means 'Get lucky or you're screwed.'. We were 3 people and one driver could only take 2 of us so I just stayed there for the next 8 hours and nothing happened. Went back to town, took a 5 euro bus south to Motril and camped near the city as its pretty small.
==== Direction Málaga via Santa Fé ====
We walked all the way from Granada to the first petrol station in Santa Fé, which is definitely not recommandable (but doable in a way). However, talk to people there and hope that the petrol station guy doesn't mind. He did when we tried, but got lucky in time. It took us one car to get all the way to Málaga! (September 2010)

If you´ll go to  In Santa you should check really nice hot springs which are only few kilometers from the town.!!

== Sleep ==
Just after the district Albaicin there is mountains where you can find good places for a tent. It's about 30 minutes on foot from the city center or from Alhambra. Locals who live there do not care so much about tourists with a tents. Also in this hills there are some caves where people live. Maybe you'll be lucky to find any empty cave for your own or someone invite you.
