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 will be rescued from oblivion thanks to the National Park shelters and to the work of the wardens.

WHAT’S NOT INCLUDED
This Trekking takes us into the beautiful mountain scenery of Picos de Europa National Park. The tour explores the Park with walks in the wild landscapes of the western, central and eastern massifs.
This tour gives you all of that. The walks are one part of it. The cultural & environmental experiences are the others.
The “Big Trek” tour is suitable for those hillwalkers who enjoy trekking “hut to hut” and challenging walks at higher altitudes over tougher, longer routes. Ideal for experienced walkers.
The Central or Urrielu Massif of the Picos de Europa is with no doubt, the most wild and spectacular scenery in the National Park. The highest peaks of the National Park are in this massif, Torrecerredo (2,650 m) and its iconic peak, Naranjo de Bulnes or Pico Urriellu.HIGHLIGHTS
· Sleep at the base of the iconic peak of Naranjo de Bulnes
· Hike a stunning landscape affords unique views in the heart of the Picos de Europa
· Experience a breathtaking part of the moon scenery of this National Park.
· Enjoy the best sunset in Picos de Europa, sleeping in Collado Jermoso Refuge.
· See a rich and varied fauna. Among other species, there are Chamois, Griffon vultures, Eagles, etc.
We usually do the activity in the Eastern Massif of Los Picos de Europa, but it depends significantly on the weather and snow conditions.
We leave Llanes at 9.00 and make collections in Cabrales around 9.30.
We reached the Jito del Escarandi at about 1,300 meters above sea level.
First, we put on the Snowshoes and explain their use and how to progress with them on different terrains: flat, ascent and descent.
We take the Ándara mines track, an easy track with an ascending but gentle slope until we reach the Ándara Refuge. During the tour, we will make different stops, and we will explain the following contents:
– Choice of safe itineraries with Snowshoes
– Types of avalanches and how to identify them
– Types of snow and how to identify them
We stop to eat a picnic at the Refuge and enjoy the snowy landscape of the Picos de Europa.
After lunch, we can return through the Canal de Las Vacas, a wilder area where you can try Snowshoeing on more complicated terrain.
What to bring:
This trekking adventure takes you deep into the breathtaking landscapes of the Picos de Europa National Park. Discover its rugged beauty by walking through the wild terrains of its western, central, and eastern massifs.
Located along Spain’s northern coast near Santander, the Picos de Europa is a limestone mountain range that spans the provinces of Asturias, Cantabria, and Northern Castille y León—Spain's largest province. As one of the earliest National Parks in Europe, this eco-destination offers unspoiled nature, free from mass tourism and the infrastructure that often accompanies it. Here, humans and nature coexist harmoniously.
The towering peaks, reaching up to 2,600 meters, the deep valleys, and the green pastures where livestock graze at heights of up to 2,000 meters provide a stunning backdrop. This region has many wildlife, including bears, wolves, eagles, vultures, chamois, deer, and alpine plants. The Picos de Europa is also steeped in history, with traces of ancient civilizations such as the Celts, Romans, and early humans evident throughout the park.
Only 40 minutes from the Cantabrian Sea, the mountains offer spectacular views of the ocean and their distinctively sculpted peaks. Dotted with charming villages nestled in valleys and scattered across the massifs, this region offers an authentic taste of rural life, where local culture and gastronomy thrive.
This tour promises to immerse you in everything the Picos de Europa offers, combining scenic walks with cultural and environmental experiences.
