Picos
de Europa - Cares Gorge
8th
July 2001 - Between Poncebos and Cain in the Picos de Europa is the most
spectacular part of the Cares Gorge, known as the Garganta del Cares.
There
is an excellent track from end to end, the result of a visionary hydroelectric
scheme which takes water from Cain to Camarmena above Poncebos where it
pours down huge pipes to the power station.
This
photo shows the track cut out of the rock face on the 14 mile there and
back walk.
