Pyrenees
If you are a mountain walker and you like to visit the high mountains there where you go, you will love Pyrenees. It is the biggest Spanish range with the most mythical sommets such us Aneto (11.167 ft), Monte Perdido (11.000 ft) or Mesa de los tres reyes (8.025 ft).
The Pyrenees is the biggest mountain range in Spain, straddling the border of France and Spain. It extends nearly 500 km (310 miles) from its union with the Basque Mountains on the Atlantic coast to the Cap de Creus on the Mediterranean coast.
