The Picos de Europa and Costa Verde Spain
For more about the places featured in this film, see our blog:
The Picos de Europa National Park is a 647 square kilometre wonderland that straddles Asturias, Cantabria, and Castile and León in Northern Spain. Its proximity to the Atlantic coast, the Costa Verde, creates a temperate climate more akin to that of the British Isles. Golden sandy beaches are pounded by surf and craggy limestone cliffs cascade down into the cold, wild waters of the Bay of Biscay. Inland, forests of deciduous and coniferous trees sweep up towards the towering limestone monoliths, spires and peaks that crown the Picos de Europa National Park. In between lie rich alpine meadows misty with flowers. There are endless opportunities for day hikes and multi-day treks in this region, including the most popular, the Cares Gorge from Puente Poncebos to Caín and that from the mountain village of Bulnes to the Refugio de la Vega de Urriellu. Known as Picu Urriellu in Asturian, the 2,519 metre high Naranjo de Bulnes, a towering chimney of grey white Palaeozoic limestone which sits behind the refugio, is the symbol of the Picos de Europa National Park and is on every Spanish rock climber’s wish list. Both hikes are featured in this film.

RUTA TELEFERICO FUENTE DE - PN-PR 24
Fuente De is located in the region of Cantabria in northern Spain. One of the main draws to the area is the Picos de Europa mountains. Picos de Europe means literally the ‘Peaks of Europe’, and got their name because this was the first thing ships from the Americas saw as they approached Spain’s northern coast.
These dramatic steep, jagged peaks were formed over a period of 300 million years, with lakes and valleys forged by the glaciers that weaved their way through them. The mountains are extremely popular with walkers and mountaineers, however because of its proximity to the Atlantic and the Bay of Biscay, they are prone to experiencing sudden changes in weather with mists rolling in from nowhere. Obviously, this can make it rather hazardous at times, so if you wish to go hiking the Cares route is recommended, which begins from Poncebos and finishes in Cain.
The Picos de Europa National Park was established in 1918 and covered almost 17,000 hectares. Today it covers over 64,000 hectares, with one of the main visitor centres in the Liebana valley at Sotama. For bird watchers this is an opportunity to spot some very rare breeds such as the highly endangered Cantabrian Capercaillie, the Griffon vulture, Golden eagle, and Black woodpecker. The Cantabrian brown bear can also be seen in the hilltops and woods surrounding the valleys, and occasionally the Iberian wolf is a visitor to the Park.
Hiking, mountain biking, horseback riding, and hang gliding are just a few activities available in the area, and there is no better place to base yourself while you are there than the Parador Fuente De (Hotel Rio Deva). Set at the foothills of the Picos, the hotel is right next to the cable car that takes visitors up to the Aliva viewpoint, where you can look down over stunning views of the Liebana Valley. A comfortable and very welcoming hotel, it is the perfect place to come back to at the end of the day.

Los hermosos Lagos forman parte del parque de Covadonga y están dentro del Parque Nacional de los Picos de Europa en Asturias.
Los Lagos de Covadonga son unas lagunas glaciares cerca de Cangas de Onis formadas por los lagos Enol, La Ercina y uno más pequeño que se llama El Bricial, que sólo tiene agua cuando se produce el deshielo en las montañas. Uno de los mejores paisajes naturales de España y uno de los lugares predilectos de turismo en Cangas de Onis. No olvide realizar una excursión, vale la pena

Glorioso Mester - Picos de Europa, Parques Nacionales
El Parque Nacional Picos de Europa se encuentra en las provincias de Cantabria, Asturias y León, siendo el único Parque Nacional perteneciente a tres comunidades autónomas diferentes y gestionado de forma conjunta.
El macizo occidental fue declarado Parque Nacional el 22 de julio de 1918 por Alfonso XIII bajo el nombre de Parque Nacional de la Montaña de Covadonga, siendo el primer espacio protegido del país. Inicialmente comprendía 16.925 ha, hasta que el 30 de mayo de 1995 se amplió su extensión hasta las 64.660 hectáreas actuales. Ese año entró a formar parte de la Red de Parques Nacionales y siendo uno de los primeros espacios naturales protegidos junto con el Parque nacional de Ordesa y Monte Perdido.
El 9 de julio de 2003 la Unesco aprobó la propuesta que lo convierte en Reserva de la biosfera.
No se debe confundir con el Parque Regional de Picos de Europa, espacio natural protegido de Castilla y León, situado al Sur del Parque Nacional. En la actualidad el Parque Nacional de los Picos de Europa constituye el segundo parque nacional más visitado de España, después del Parque Nacional del Teide (Tenerife)
