“THE PICOS DE EUROPA EXPERIENCE”
This tour is ideal for hillwalkers with a good level of fitness & recent experience walking at grade A or B.
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.
