Picos de Europa National Park at 1:50,000 on an excellent GPS compatible map
highlighting three hiking routes which can be combined into a Tour of the
Picos, plus descriptions of the routes in English and lists of mountain huts
and refuges.
The map covers the whole of the National Park area and extends north and west
beyond its borders to include Potes and other surrounding villages. Very fine
cartography provides an excellent presentation of the terrain through contours
at 20m intervals enhanced by relief shading and altitude colouring, numerous
spot heights, and plenty of names of peaks and other topographic features.
Symbols highlight locations of campsites, mountain huts, refuges and hostels,
as well as petrol stations on local roads. The map has a 1-km UTM grid.
A special feature of this map is an overprint highlighting three long-distance
hiking routes: a circuit of the western massif, a traverse of the central and
the eastern massifs, plus additional stages which together with parts of the
first two routes can be combined into a Tour of the Picos de Europa.
On the reverse the three routes have stage-by-stage descriptions, illustrated
with colour photos. Also provided are details of local mountain huts and
refuges.
