The Picos de Europa, one of Europe's last mountain wilderness
areas, are the high point of a long ridge of mountains which
runs along the north coast of Spain, the Cordillera Cantabrica.
Ranging in altitude from 150m to 2648m (about 500-8700ft), the
Picos are divided into three spectacular limestone massifs
separated from one another, and from the surrounding ranges, by
precipitous gorges a truly spectacular area in which to walk
or tour. This guide contains a wealth of information about the
dazzling array of plant and animal life you can expect to see
when exploring the range |
