🌴Escape the cold this winter and head to one of our Spanish walking routes.
These 4 winter walking destinations are some of the best in Europe and can offer a very welcoming and rewarding break from the harsh cold. Which one will you choose?
1- Andalucia 🥾 A lovely walk in the still unspoilt mountains to the west of Ronda, the ‘pueblos blancos’ or white villages contain some of Spain’s most distinctive ‘popular’ architecture. Narrow streets of whitewashed houses drop steeply down the hillsides. Your stays in these hillside villages are interspersed with glorious walking through the dramatic limestone scenery of the Grazalema National Park.
2 - Mallorca 🌊 This stunning walk shows to perfection two unspoilt faces of the island of Mallorca. Spend an evening in the relaxed and historic capital – Palma – and explore its labyrinthine streets, palace courtyards, art museums and elaborate cathedral before heading for the hills. These limestone mountains form a dramatic landscape of peaks and deep valleys, largely undiscovered except by walkers.
3 - La Gomera 🌴The Canary Islands archipelago is one of the most biodiverse places on the planet, and of all the islands, La Gomera stands out with a rich variety of ecosystems, a beautiful coastline and dramatic volcanic landscapes – best seen on foot.
4 - Marina Alta 🦋 Behind the bustling beaches of the Costa Blanca in south-east Spain lies a landscape of charming villages, fruitful valleys and rugged hills, as remote from the Costas as possible. The lively villages of the Marina Alta are linked by a network of waymarked paths, insinuating their way through the maquis shrubland and the tiny fields, through woodland, and over ridges which all promise a view of the Mediterranean in the distance.
