Welcome To Asturian Spirit

With about two hundred miles of rugged Atlantic coast reminiscent of Cornwall, magnificent mountain scenery which includes the Picos de Europa and the Redes Natural Park, a timeless way of life steeped in culture that is enchantingly different from the busy Southern Costas, Asturias offers some of the most attractive and varied mountain-walking in the whole of Europe.

During 2007 Asturian Spirit ran four walking holidays in the Picos de Europa. Due to the popularity of these holidays we have increased the number of departures for 2008 including an exciting family holiday and an innovative photography holiday. Check out both Walking Holidays for more details of the 2008 departures and the Picos Traverse gallery for some really brilliant pictures.

Buying a House in Asturias

We have just launched our new website Asturian House, an informative site and personal service designed to help you to search for property in this lovely part of North West Spain. It’s still in its infancy, but more houses will be added soon.

I hope you will enjoy browsing my site and be inspired by my images in the galleries section, showing some of the beautiful places I have been fortunate enough to visit.
