Challenging Mountain Routes in Spain
The mountain ranges of Spain are the hidden gems of Europe. Often overlooked in favour of the Alps or the Dolomites, Spain has several incredible mountain ranges with clear-cut hiking routes that are sure to provide a challenge to any seasoned hiker. Here in the mountains of Spain, you will find unique cultures, delectable local cuisine and a neverending array of intensely beautiful scenery and vistas. With our Spanish HQ being set in one of these dynamic mountain ranges, we know exactly what it takes to craft a stunning route through the mountains.
France and Spain are separated by the majestic Pyrenees, a range that spans the border, but digs deep on both sides to reveal a rich history and culture that is well worth exploring. Inland, to the north sit the glorious Picos de Europa, a mountain range that literally bursts from the flat plains that surround it, opening up a wonderland of vast gorges, rushing rivers and grand peaks.

A local saying says “Don’t call me Naranjo (orange tree), because I cannot bear fruit; call me Picu Urriellu, which is my true name”, referring to two popular names for this famous peak in the Central Massif of Picos de Europa. In the afternoon sun, Urriellu Peak takes on an orangish hue which might explain its nickname.
