Hello everyone!
I'm excited to start this community of hikers and share some thoughts on what makes Spain such an incredible destination for outdoors activities.
In my view, when it comes to the summer season, there are two areas that stand head and shoulders above the rest: the magnificent Pyrenees, and the rugged, breathtaking Picos de Europa. These offer high-mountain challenges and spectacular scenery that are truly world-class. Of course, Spain has a wealth of other fantastic, albeit smaller, hiking areas scattered across the country, each with its own unique charm, more on each one of those later.
When the snow starts to fall in the big mountains, my preference shifts towards the southern and eastern parts of the country. For the winter season, you simply can't beat staying close to the Mediterranean. The weather here is wonderfully mild—you can often enjoy fantastic, sunny days on the trails, sometimes even hiking comfortably in shorts and a T-shirt in the middle of January!
Looking forward to sharing experiences and getting some great recommendations from you all!
Happy hiking!
