Spain is a wonderful country that provides something for people from all walks of life, from the alluring and lovely beaches all along the coast and the Canary Islands, to the mountains, valleys and plains of the middle, to the big cities of Madrid and Barcelona. The weather is superb for much of the year, meaning mountain climbing can be done for most of it. Temperatures can get quite hot in Summer, and in the Northern and Central parts of the country, Winters can get quite cool. The villages, towns and cities are full of intriguing histories and culture which they are very proud of, especially in the autonomous regions, providing endless hours of exploration and discovery, thus ensuring there is always something to see and do. A lot of the mountain climbing can be very physically and mentally demanding, so it is recommended that you build up a very good base of fitness before tackling any of the routes
