SPAIN - WALKING - FOOD Geography and weather Mountain weather History Language ... Spanish food Introduction Spain is a common destination for the package holiday trade, but there is much more to this country than sitting on a beach. Move away from the holiday complexes down the coasts and in minutes you are in a different land, unaffected by the dubious benefits of the mass tourism that came to Spain in the sixties. During the long years of Franco's reign Spain fell behind the rest of Europe's post war development, (which makes it cheaper to visit than some european countries) but once Franco died and democracy arrived, Spain started to party, and they have never stopped! For the walker this country offers high mountains in all parts of the country. In high summer the temperature is likely to be hot (at least in valleys) so it may be best to avoid the hottest months. Click on the titles or on the map to look at some possible walking holiday destinations. Geography and weather Spain is a high plateau or tableland (the meseta) with ranges of mountains (Cordillera Cantabrica and Pyrenees) across the north dividing it from France and in the south, the spanish mainland's highest mountains, the Sierra Nevada. Much of the interior is above 900 metres above sea level and many mountain ranges rise above 1800 metres.The capital, Madrid is in the centre of the peninsula. There is a strong regionalist culture, especially in Catalonia (capital Barcelona) and the Basque country in the north.

Geography The topographical characteristics also generate a variety of climatic regimes throughout the country. By far the greatest part of the country, however, experiences a continental climate of hot, dry summers and rather harsh, cold winters. Where these conditions prevail, the soils have eroded, vegetation is sparse, and agriculture is difficult. Irrigation is practiced where possible, but it is difficult because the flow in most streams is seasonally irregular, and the stream beds of larger rivers are frequently much lower than the adjacent terrain.

Language News MESOTHELIOMA Language News Geography of Spain Mainland Spain is dominated by high plateaus and mountain ranges such as the Pyrenees or the Sierra Nevada. Running from these heights are several major rivers such as the Tagus, the Ebro, the Duero, the Guadiana and the Guadalquivir. Alluvial plains are found along the coast, the largest of which is that of the Guadalquivir in Andalusia. Spain is bound to the east by Mediterranean Sea (containing the Balearic Islands), to the north by the Bay of Biscay and to its west by the Atlantic Ocean, where the Canary Islands off the African coast are found. Spain has called for the return of possession of Gibraltar, a tiny British possession on its southern coast. It changed hands during the War of the Spanish Succession in 1713. The most recent talks dealt with the idea of "total shared sovereignty" over Gibraltar, subject to a constitutional referendum by Gibraltarians, who have expressed opposition to any form of cession to Spain. The town of Olivenza (Extremadura) and its country is claimed by Portugal, but the Spanish public is not generally aware of that claim.
