CIRCULAR  ROUTE THROUGH PICOS DE EUROPA

The purpose of this project is for the National Park to become better known. Within a historical context, the “Anillo” (Ring) of Picos de Europa covers the Montes Vindios, known today as Picos de Europa.

Everything in this route in Picos de Europa is spectacular: the rocky crests, the gorges, the valleys, the vast glacial lakes, the leafy forests. You can rest assured that you’ll be absolutely amazed at everything you see.

Every stone found on the wayside by people who wish to venture into the Ring amasses many different stories, many of which will be rescued from oblivion thanks to the National Park Mountain Huts and the great job of the wardens.

HIGHLIGHTS
