Visitor Reviews of Picos De Europa


Juan from SPAIN writes:

Hi, I know very well this mountains. Speak about Picos de Europa is speak about the very high mountain: Picos isn´t Snowdonia. Every year we have English people dead in Picos because they don't know the mountain and the mountains are not the hills. The French, the Suisse and the Italian people know better this sports (the skiing, the free skiing, and the sports of mountain) and I know of no dead amongst these nationalities. In summer, it is the same thing: we are in the mountain, and I see groups of English people walk to the summit when storms are near on the air. In Picos you can see it snowing in September!. Be careful please, is a very nice place, but isn`t the country. I hope this winter and this summer 2008 all will be good for all people.
Excuse my English. Is better walk on this places with a person who knows the mountains well. Picos is a very big area, and there you have only stone and snow. Sorry for my English.
