Trekking in Spain - Picos de Europa

We've graded the walks on this tour as moderate. While you don't need to be a hiking pro to take part, you should have a good level of fitness. See the day-to-day itinerary for walking distances. There are some steep inclines and descents as well as uneven, rocky paths to traverse on this tour. Walks aren't recommended for those with hip or knee issues. Comfortable, supportive walking shoes are a must and walking poles are also recommended. While our itinerary includes walks every day, if you don't feel up to it, you re more than welcome to stay in the village or relax at the hotel. Our base for the week is a family-run hotel in Sotres - the hotel is comfortable but basic and the village is small with just a handful of restaurants and a couple of local shops. It can get incredibly hot during the summer months and very cold during the winter months - please, take weather into consideration when choosing your departure and packing. The region is well-known for its cured meats and cheeses and Asturian food focuses quite heavily on meat. Vegans and vegetarians might find they have limited eating options.
