The Principality of Asturias, is an autonomous region with a population
of just over one million at a density double the average for Spain.
The capital is Oviedo and the two other principal cities are Gijón and
Aviles. The landscape of Asturias is one of striking beauty with the
mountains of the Picos de Europa, two hundred miles of ever-changing
coastline and an interior rich in forests, rivers and green pastures. And
one does not have drive all day to get from one to the other. The richness
of the natural environment is greatest asset of Asturias; yet it is not
always used to its potential. But such is its importance that a third of
the land has be given protected status. The most important areas include:
National Park of Picos de Europa, Naranquo de Burnes - where there are
protected species such as bears, the country parks of Redes, Somiedo and
the Fuentes of Narcea and Ibias. And there is nowhere more important than
the Lagos de Covadonga, declared a natural monument. The Asturian coast
stretches for more than two hundred miles and has 159 beaches interspersed
by dramatic cliffs and hidden coves. The coast passes through urban
resorts and unspoilt protected countryside, while crossing dunes, Jurassic
burial sites, natural monuments. In short, everykind of habitat. Bathing,
whether from the sandy beaches or from the many coves and inlets is
popular, though people do need to remember this is the Atlantic not the
Mediterranean and while the surf can be more exciting it merits more
respect.
The region (autonomia in Spanish) of Cantabria has a population of half a
million in the third smallest regional area of Spain at a density one third
greater than the national average.
The capital is Santander. Other main cities are: Santillana del Mar,
Comillas and Laredo. Although one of the smallest regions Cantabria lacks
nothing in the diversity of what it has to offer the visitor: mountains,
beaches, forests, pastures and a history and heritage that stretches from
the earliest times. Countryside and nature lovers adore Cantabria, which has
the largest national park in Spain, Picos de Europa and five country parks
as well as many other protected areas. Mention must be made of the Parque de
la Naturaleza de Cararceno in whose seven hundred and fifty hectares are
programmes to preserve endangered species. On that others can appreciate and
enjoy all these natural riches Cantabria has provided more camping sites
than any other region in Spain. Other important locations are: Natural
Reserve of Marismas de Santona, Tictoria and Joyel, the park of Macizo de
Pena Cabarga, and the country parks of Dunas de Liencres, Saja, Collados de
Ason y Oyambre. Coast and beaches Cantabria has more than seventy beaches of
all types in a relatively small area. They all enjoy fine white sand and
clear waters. The coastline varies from high rugged cliffs, through
foothills to flat pastures. This has resulted in many different rock
formations from the smooth to rugged crags, which in turn have created
promontories and small offshore islands. The combination of tectonic changes
and wave movements has produced many types of estuary from deep ravines to
wide flat salt marshes.
