WALKING THE NATIONAL PARKS OF SPAIN'S PYRENEES ORDESA / MONTE PERDIDO & AIGUAS TORTES |
Perhaps the most spectacular mountain scenery in Spain is found in the Pyrenees, the second largest range in Europe, forming a massive natural border between Spain and France. The two most beautiful areas of the Spanish side of this great range are the Aiguas Tortes National Park, known for its myriad lakes and flowers, and the National Park of Ordesa and Monte Perdido, recently named a natural World Heritage Site by UNESCO. This is the scene for our exciting guided Pyrenees walking tour...
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX With approximately 27 peaks over 3,000 metres, these mountains offer some wonderful walking opportunities. Our guided itinerary offers a selection of the best walks here, focusing primarily on the southern face of the range, from one or two routes lower down in the typically warm and Mediterranean environments of the southern slopes - known as the Alpujarras - to some wonderful spots higher up where abundant sunshine and water from snowmelt create some paradise-like alpine settings. Weather permitting, we will summit Mulhacen, the highest peak in the range. The tour begins with a day and night in Granada where we will visit the fabulous Alhambra palace and gardens.... for more details and an itinerary description... |
