    in the topic Walking and Hiking in the forum Leisure in Spain
    I will start with my favourite link, which offers 200 route descriptions for free:
    Walking Routes in Spain
    covers Asturias, Cantabria, Aragon, Valencia and Andalusia.

    I dare to say, I am a rather experienced day-walker myself. I would like to share my experiences with others who are interested in walking and hiking.

    So, where have you been? What is your favourite nature park, location, or walk? Where would you like to do your next hike? Day walks or long walks?
    Do you find GPS useful, interesting, toy...?

    Hey there!

    Thanks for pointing all readers to the cool site! Have you tried any of the routes? If so, which ones would you recommend?

    Cheers,
    Editor ES


    Oh yes. I have tried the national park of Sierra Nevada and the nature park of Grazalema in Andalusia, some routes in Valencia, a number of routes in Pyrenees (Huesca, Aragon) and now I am heading to the national park of Picos de Europa asap.
    Thanks to this website it is finally easy to find the routes - especially those, which are right for you!
    The walks in Grazalema are gentle and easy. Sierra Nevada offers both challenging and easier walks. Valencia is a very good place to start hiking - even short walks offer versatile landscapes.
    Pyrenees is the most challenging and rewarding. If you want to climb the highest peaks, it is better to stay overnight in some of the refugios. But I prefer routes with views to the mountain tops.
    The valley of Ordesa was perhaps my favourite in Pyrenees:
    You can find the links to the Valley of Ordesa routes here:

    Looking at the pictures of the Picos de Europa http://www.topwalks.net/en/picos_de_europa.htm, I think that I have not experienced the most beautiful mountains yet.
    I will start a new thread "walking and hiking in Spain" one of these days. It would be nice to hear where the others have been.

    I started two companies in Valencia before I realised, there is no embezzlement in the Valencian law blink.gif
    And the wheels are indeed turning slowly. I started a legal process 3 year ago against the manager I hired and fired (too late, much too late!). I am still waiting for a court date angry.gif

    Hello
    My family are seriously thinking about leaving the uk and weve thought about Spain,we have never been before.When we have sold our house we will visit but which part of Spain not sure.We think wed like to be away from the busy places and be in a small village where our young children can mix with locals and brits.Can anyone suggest any place thats worth a visit?
    Thank you

    You might be interested in Costa Blanca. Small towns like Denia, Javea, Moraira, Calpe and Altea could offer exactly that.
    To me, this is the most beautiful part of the eastern coast. It is not as touristic as Costa del Sol, erosion is not bad at all.
    Cantabria, Asturias and Galicia are easier to adapt to, but there are not that many Brits to mix with...
