I've honestly never seen another place on earth like this. We were so lucky to have perfect conditions as we trecked through the park a few weeks back. The way the higher snow covered mountains are lit up, almost luminous by the mid day sun just blew my mind!

If you'd like to see some more of my stuff you could take a look at my Instagram page
Cheers!

Very cool and other-wordly. What's lighting up the orange rocks in the foreground? A reflection?

Thanks very much! I'm not certain. Could be reflected sunlight. There was a lot bouncing about as overall it was a very bright place

Looks amazing!

I'll be going in a few weeks. Is it a known / maintained trail? i'd be interested depending on how long / difficult it is :)

It sure is. It's about 25km and takes around 6 hrs.

Picos es un paraje que, por más que visito, sigue sorprendiendo.

Me alegra que hayas tenido la oportunidad de visitarlo y compartirlo!

Siii, de acuerdo! Los picos son tan hermosos como enormes! 😃

Soy de Escocia, pero vivo en Llanes en este momento. Lo conoces?

Aunque, en el futuro probablemente voy a mover a Cantabria. Santander exactamente. Es una ciudad que me encanta 😊

Beautiful! What time of year is best for hiking there? Not too cold and not too sweaty? Also is it possible to stay in huts or is a tent needed for multiday hikes?

I mean I always say winter is best for hiking. Much better for temperature control than when it's warmer. And snow is awesome, so there's that too.

Soy del Norte de Portugal, pero mi familia ha vivido en San Vicente de La Barquera, a la derecha de Llanes y a la izquierda de Santander.
Conozco Santander, Torrelavega, Gijon, Llanes, Panes, Unquera, Santillana del Mar (tiene un zoo), Cabarceno (el mayor y mejor zoo que he visto. Es como un Safari. Es el Parque Jurássico)

Conozco Covadonga y subimos muchas veces de coche a los lagos en los Picos de Europa.
Me recuerdo del teleférico que subia hasta las nubes, y en la parte de abajo tenia un show con aguillas e búhos.

Me encantaba San Vicente De La Barquera , porque tienes El oceano en un lado, los Picos de Europa al fundo, y Los campos Verdes de Cantábria al redor.
És un sitio mágico.

En la foto vez la villa de San Vicente. La Barquera es de onde se tiro foto.

Visita Cabarceno, Covadonga, los lagos, san vicente, Santillana....ai tanto para ver.
Todo de bien para ti.

Me encantaba, al passar por Asturias, ver las cabras en las escarpas de las montañas 😆

PS: en la foto puedes ver un monte como que redondo. Esso es Naranjo de Bulnes, y me recuerdo que es una escalada muy peligrosa y que mucha gente ha murido alla.

Haha nah that's not too bad. It usually takes around 10 mins to walk a kilometer. Obviously on the trail some of those take a bit longer that that though!
