As mentioned previously, it’s been a busy start for Hike Pyrenees and there’s more than one camera here at HQ. So here’s my favorite photo’s from the season so far from the dual level hikes in the Valle de Tena and Ordesa. With wild flowers in abundance, vultures dominating the sky and beautiful scenery, it’s hard to know which way to point the camera!
Hiking in the Valle de Tena –
- Walking in the La Ripera valley with the cliffs of the Sierra de Tendenera in the distance
- Fantastic intense blue gentians
