Feel your legs burning and your lungs working as you tackle the Picos 24, one of the most challenging hikes in Asturias. With a distance of 14.61 km and an ascent of 1437 meters, this route is not for the faint-hearted. You will mostly walk on unmade paths through a peaceful, natural landscape, where cars are rare and you hear only the sound of your own breathing and the wind.

The route winds through remote mountain valleys and rugged plateaus, where time seems to stand still. It is a pure test of endurance, but the reward lies in the silence and the untouched surroundings. You will not pass busy roads, only narrow paths that lead you deeper into the mountains.

Prepare for a steep climb, but also enjoy the tranquility and vastness of the Picos de Europa. This is hiking as it is meant to be: pure, intense, and without frills.
