A general natural history tour of these magnificent mountains, led by Teresa Farino.

Early May brings a certain joie de vivre to the flora and fauna of the Picos, characterised by warm days, colourful butterflies and spectacular spring floral displays of narcissi, gentians and orchids after the long winter. We can also expect to see a good selection of amphibians, reptiles, birds and mammals.
