The Picos de Europa are more than just a beautiful mountain range for hiking.
This limestone massif hides Spain's first national park, a peak that no one managed to climb until 1904—and it was a barefoot shepherd who did so alongside a nobleman in espadrilles from Paris—a village without a road, accessible only by funicular, and mountains visible from the sea from more than 15 kilometers away.
In this video, we'll discover 45 amazing facts about the Picos de Europa: the Torre de Cerredo, the Naranjo de Bulnes, the Cares Route, the Lakes of Covadonga, the monastery that houses the largest relic of the True Cross, the battle that sparked the Reconquista, the International Descent of the Sella River, and the hidden corners of this mountain range that span Asturias, Cantabria, and Castile and León.
Because the Picos de Europa are not just one mountain range. They are three massifs, three provinces, and three different ways of experiencing the same limestone.

El descenso de Sella no sale de las montañas
No hay osos en los Picos de Europa
Pones fotos que no se corresponden ni a los picos ni a Asturias, Cantabria o León

Y ahora os toca a vosotros: si sois de Asturias, Cantabria o León y conocéis los Picos, ¿con qué macizo os quedáis, el Cornión, los Urrieles o el olvidado Andara? ¿Qué anomalía se nos ha escapado?
