Our route follows what begins as a tiny mountain stream flowing through
the green mountain pastures of Cantabria, beautiful valleys, imposing
canyons, vineyards, past pretty and unknown villages, witnessing the
changes in the landscape and the river itself. Finally we arrive in
La Rioja, home of the finest wines produced in
A wonderful journey from Fontibre to Laguardia. A great adventure through
such gorgeous floral landscape with its alpines, orchids, camassias
etc., the vultures, kites, shrikes, golden orioles, rock buntings
and the nightingale. The canyons with sculptured limestone, sandstone and conglomerate
are majestic. Anticipate La Rioja with its vineyards. But also the
fascinating Laguardia with its magnificent views, the wildlife lagoon,
La Hoya and the exotic bird reserve. An excellent trip with so much interest, a varied cycling
terrain, intriguing and comfortable accommodation, restaurants with
good food ,interesting culture and fascinating architecture. |
