Walks & Bes in Spain:

 

What on Earth does that stupid man mean by 'Walks & Bes'?!?! Does he mean 'Bees'? No I don't mean 'bees'. Its quite simple really, we all enjoy a good route march to get the heart beating and the lungs pumping but there are some special places that are more suitable for just being. Places where we may stroll about a bit but where we also spend time just sitting and being, enjoying nature and watching her dance for our delight. So in this guide you will find lots of challenging walks for all fitness levels. On my other site, Let's Discover Spain, you will find lots of lovely places where you can just enjoy being there.

.

As the second most mountainous country in Europe, Spain has some really great walking opportunities. Come with me as I explore this fascinating country. I give you clear directions and GPS co-ordinates. Here you will find some challenging walks as well as routes for the less fit amongst us. There is something for everyone here. 

.

Just a quick note about GPS. Some people hate them, others love them. If, as a boy, someone would have predicted that in my lifetime I would be holding an interactive, electronic map with a constantly updated 'You Are Here' marker, I would have thought they had been reading too much science fiction. Yet here they are. I love them but then I never grew out of toys. Of course I navigated in remote hill country perfectly well before the arrival of GPS, as did most of us. 

.

GPS devices make great servants but very poor masters. Use them with discretion. I am sure the military versions are very accurate but the commercially available ones just aren't. To give you the best possible coordinates in this guide, I carry three GPS units; a Garmin Etrex Venture Cx, a Garmin Etrex Vista Cx and a Magellan Colour, all set to the same datum. Usually they are in broad agreement but not always. Occasionally they have been as much as 100 metres apart (at least they thought they were). The overall distance recorded can vary by up to a kilometer. The coordinates given in this guide are an average of those three devices so if you get to where you think I want you to be, and you still can't find the path, just look around a bit. It may be a few metres away. New locations are being added weekly so please do check in often. 

.

Enjoy walking and being.
