    That mountain top view reminds me of walk round the three Chimneys in dolomites or cable car upto Mont Blanc keeping exploring and stay safe

    What a beautiful country, You can be sunbathing one minute and having a snowball fight the next. Always thank you so much for taking the time to make these videos. Probably countries will never be able to Visit. I hope the both you stay safe stay healthy until next time.

    Watching this video in the Santillana del Mar car park you stayed in! Pretty little town. Heading along the coast on the way out then inland to the Picos on the way back ☺️

    “It reminds me of Isle of Skye, it reminds me of Austria or Switzerland rather than the north of Spain..” says someone who’s never been to the north of Spain 🤪 I’ll never understand why people are so obsessed with Spain’s image of beach and heat when a third of the country is mountainous and cold, to the point that many villages are usually blocked by the snow in winter. Maybe it’s because they only come in summer or perhaps because they only visit the south, but it’s funny how they expect to see people in bikini all year round.

    Picos de Europa is the closest mountain range to the coast (18 miles) of all Continental Europe. You just scratched the surface of Northern Spain. You guys are a cute couple. An Asturian in California

    Los Picos de Europa estan en la Cordillera Cantabrica que cruza 2 regiones Españolas Asturias y Cantabria y en Covadonga Asturias esta el bellisimo lugar de Covadonga en la montaña rodeada por algunos lagos glaciares con su Basilica dedicada a esta vitgen de Covadonga y donde en el año 722 empezo la Reconquista Cristiana de España con la victoria de la Batalla de Covadonga y finalizo 770 años despues con la toma de Granada por los Reyes Catolicos en 1.492 ;por eso la bandera de la region de Asturias lleva una letra Alfa con signo griego del comienzo de la Reconquista de España.en España todos los sucesores que van a ser Rey o Reina de España son Principes de Asturias antes de ser Reyes

    Really like the way you combine the classic "van life" stuff with useful travel information, plus stunning footage to match.
    Great for anyone looking for an alternative destination and definitely Spain's hidden treasure.

    I think my previous images I had of Spain have been turned on its head thanks to you guys. Goodness. I can sure see why these places have captured your eyes as well as your heart. Almost like you run out of words to describe what's around you. Campbell I was just thinking "it doesn't seem real" when you said it. About stepping on those holes...umm it might take some encouraging lol but with that I could do it. Another epic vlog you two.

    Guys, that was one amazingly enjoyable video. We really must get out van over to the continent next year. I'd be interested to learn which route you found the best to get to mainland Europe. We are based in Fife. Looking forward to the next episode.

      100% do it … before we went full time (currently writing this from Portugal) we did 3 months in northern Spain (including the Picos) in 2021, and then in 2022 did 3 months in Brittany and Normandy … before this we simply thought the UK van experience was how it was .. and some parts are semi okay (Scotland, Ireland etc) … but then you get into France and start to realise just how many options you have once in mainland Europe … love travelling in a van in mainland Europe … good luck with your own adventure ..

    Hi, love watching your videos, actually following in your footsteps ATM touring Spain. Off to Pico's de Europa tomorrow, do you think it's ok for a couple in their late fifties and is parking ok? Also what was the name of the beach you stopped at, couldn't quite catch the name. Might pass you on our travels 😊

    • @highlands2hammocks
      @highlands2hammocks  Год назад

      How exciting! We would definitely say it is easy enough. We saw no signs prohibiting overnight parking and there were loads of facilities ☺️ download park4night app and you will have no issues!
