Hoya de la Mora is a spectacular high mountain pass, located in Granada (Spain), in the Sierra Nevada Park, at an elevation of 2.550m above the sea level, on the A395 road.
Over the top there’s a military construction, at 2.556 m above the sea level.



The A395 road is closed after that point, where it starts the closed road to Pico del Veleta, the tallest asphalted road in Europe.
