An easy, rural circular from Sainte-Colome in the Ossau Valley, alternating between beautiful woodland paths and farm tracks, offering a wonderful introduction to the Béarn foothills and the pretty village of Sainte Colome. Marked with PR®, then VTT and then GR®78.

A classic in the Val d'Aran, an ascent to Lake Besiberri via the Val de Besiberri with magnificent views of the Besiberri, the Sèrra del Molar Gran and the Aneto.

There are many ways to visit these hermitages; we chose to do a circular walk, starting from the village of Anies. The first is El Ermita de la Virgen de la Pena de Anies, reminiscent of Greek meteors, which appears inaccessible; the next is El Ermita de San Cristobal del Barranco, a cave chapel lost at the bottom of a ravine. Next, we’ll visit two chapels – Santa Quiteria and Santa Barbara – which are of lesser interest but will bring the total to four!

A short circular half-day tour starting from Biscarrués, alternating between tracks and paths, exploring Romanesque tombs, almond and cereal fields, passing through the village of Piedramorrera with its curious doorfronts.

A variant of the tour of the Mallos de Riglos, already described in Visorando, which offers beautiful views of the Pyrenees and a return via a spectacular balcony path, El camino de Solano.

This loop from Lumbier takes you to a hermitage, a ridge trail with fine views, two mineral arches and the Foz de Lumbier. An alternative to the small loop starting from the paying car park at Foz de Lumbier, the first part of which is not very interesting. This hike is for experienced hikers only.

An easy loop through an incredible volcanic landscape. A must-see in the Teide National Park.

A beautiful loop starting from Piedrafita de Jaca with a visit to a geological curiosity, the Sarronal Arch.

One of Jaca's great classics, the ascent to the Peña de Oroel cross can be enhanced by a beautiful ridge route and a wilder forest descent than the round trip via the normal route. Magnificent 360° views all along the ridge.

Make the most of your visit to Aragon and Loarre Castle to explore El Ermita de San Cristóbal del Barranco, a cave hermitage tucked away at the bottom of a ravine, accessible via a superb path. Please note: the approach to the hermitage is vertiginous.

A circular route along beautiful paths and tracks to walk around the Mallos de Agüero from Murillo de Gallego. The Mallos de Agüero may be smaller than those at Riglos but are much less crowded. You can walk around them from the village of Agüero; here I suggest a longer alternative with a unique and little-used return route from Murillo de Gallego, featuring a superb stretch at the foot of the Peña Rueba. An easy hike with no particularly difficult sections; a good pair of walking shoes is all you need.

A short, easy and beautiful circular route near Huesca, where you will enter an amazing gorge, visit a hermitage and return to the starting point via a beautiful balcony trail.

Set between the wonderful white villages of Andalusia, Zahara de la Sierra and Grazalema, just a few kilometres from Ronda, this magnificent circular path along a beautiful balcony path offers sublime scenery.

From the beautiful white village of Trevélez in La Alpujarra, a lovely circular route that differs from the one suggested by the Trevélez Town Council, wilder and partly off the marked trail or even off-trail. This circular route offers beautiful views of the village and the Sierra Nevada.GPS or the Visorando app is highly recommended

A lovely circular route with magnificent and surprising scenery in the heart of La Rioja. A beautiful ridge walk featuring two easy summits offering magnificent views over the plains of La Rioja and a descent through a wild mini-canyon.
