Hikes through the varied landscape of Spain
Spain has much more to offer than the sea, beautiful beaches and big cities like Màlaga, Madrid or Barcelona. Thousands of kilometres of hiking trails await you to explore unique landscapes. The Caminos Naturales run throughout Spain, both on the mainland and on islands such as La Palma, Tenerife, Fuerteventura, La Gomera, Lanzarote, Mallorca or Menorca. No matter which Camino Natural you choose, you can discover the diversity of Spain. Each long-distance hiking trail has its own special features.
But the various Vías Verdes - green paths - also allow you to immerse yourself in the nature of Spain. If you are on a Via Verde, you will be walking along former railway lines. Around 120 greenways lead you through the whole of Spain, from short to long.
Hiking in the Pyrenees
In the north of Spain, the Pyrenees stretch more than 400 km. Peaks rising up to 3,000 m, rushing rivers and numerous mountain villages await you. The high mountains are ideal for beautiful hikes.

Discover the Picos de Europa!
Also in the north, in the provinces of Asturias, Cantabria and León, are the Picos de Europa as part of the Cantabrian Mountains. The diverse landscape of mountains, lakes, meadows and gorges invites you to impressive hikes.
Hiking in the Sierra Nevada
The highest mountain range on the mainland, however, is in the south: the Sierra Nevada in Andalusia. Here, too, beautiful hiking tours await you:
Beautiful hikes on the Balearic and Canary Islands
In addition to the mainland, the Canary Islands and Balearic Islands also offer wonderful hikes. The highest peak in Spain is the island volcano Pico del Teide on Tenerife with a height of 3,718 metres. From there you can enjoy a breathtaking view of the Canary Islands and the Atlantic Ocean.
Pilgrimage on the Way of St James
The most famous hiking trail in Spain is the Camino de Santiago. The classic Camino Francés leads you from the Pyrenees through northern Spain to Santiago de Compostela. The hike is divided into several stages, covering a total of around 800 km.
