Obarenes to Covadonga

Take flight above northern Spain, across the fertile plains of Castile and Leon – a view beautifully in contrast with the rugged landscape and medieval villages of the Obarenes Mountains. Visit the vibrant city of Bilbao, the capital of the Basque country, before gliding over some of Spain's most beautiful coastal vistas and the harbor town Mundaka. Following the Basque shoreline takes us to the port city of Santander. From there, we head into the heart of the Picos de Europa National Park, one of Europe’s most impressive mountain ranges. We complete our journey at the famed shrine and basilica of Our Lady of Covadonga.
