Naranjo de Bulnes


Back to Los Picos De Europa, Northern Spain this week for hopefully more autumn sunshine on more warm limestone, although at this time of year it could be snowing ! Above shows climbing on Naranjo De Bulnes or Pico Urriello or just El Pico ! a monolith of steep limestone at the heart of The Picos National Park. This area has some fantastic mountain scenary enhanced by interesting fauna and flora, a unique mountain culture, good accomodation and easy access from the UK ( Santander is only 1hr by road away ) and I'm looking forward to going !
