"One small step for man..." Oh yes - the Picos de Europa National Park was like a moonscape complete with lunar-module-esque refuge hut!
How: Caught a train to San Sebastian hired a car and drove to Potes. Lots of accom out of season and outdoor gear if hats/walking poles have been forgotten (got a pair of half-decent walking poles for 15 Euro. BARGAIN) Buses are available but woud have lengthened the journey.
Heaps pf excellent hikes from this region - dry and barren looking but moments of life and loveliness if you keep still and look close...like people I guess.
and..as always...bloody wonderful to be up a peak again. Especialli in Espana!!
