Global Adventure – Spain’s Picos de Europa
Global Adventure – Spain’s Picos de Europa
This 14-day hotel-based trip includes 7 moderate hikes and 1 village walk, plus 2 days in Bilbao including a tour of Basque country. Picos de Europa National Park is Spain’s first national park and was declared a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve in 2002. Three giant massifs dominate the landscape – Andara/Eastern massif, Urrieles/Central massif and Cornión/Western massif. This trip visits all three massif regions. Hikes range from 9 mi, 1300’ gain to 15 mi, 3510’gain. The mild climate is dominated by its proximity to the Atlantic Ocean and is much like PNW climate. In this green heart of Spain, we’ll explore deep river gorges, hike amongst soaring limestone peaks, mixed stratified forests and rural mountain villages, as well as delve into Asturias food culture and history.
