- The 12th day from an epic ride on my BMW R1250 GSA through northern Spain - Picos de Europa at its best! I had four weeks to complete a "circle" from Alicante up north, to follow the Pyrenees, continue to Picos de Europa and the western corner of Spain and south through northern Portugal and back to Alicante.
This day should turn out to be one of the best and most spectacular rides on the tour. Basecamp for today was a hotel in Cangas de Onís.
The legendary As-264 up to and past Sotres is stunningly beautiful. Riding the remaining part of the gravel road between Espinama and Sotres added to the success of the day, not to mention the scenic road up to the glacier lakes of Covadonga. Simply Picos de Europa at its best!
Enjoy the ride!

I want to ride this road. How much of it is dirt/gravel?
The gravel section between Sotres and Espinama is about 16 km. There are detours along the track if you want to do more dirt riding. The section is beyond scenic. Don't miss it if you are in the neighborhood.
Good luck with your trip!
Excellent video, the Poncebos - Tielve - Sotres - Tresviso highway is possibly one of the most beautiful I know. Especially between Sotres and Tresviso, with the Sobra valley.
I hope that in Portugal you could visit the Sierra de la Estrella, another paradise to visit on a motorcycle, on asphalt and on tracks
The gravel road, and the paved, in Picos is stunning. About the best in Spain. Eventually some videos from Portugal is waiting to be edited. 😁
Thx for the wonderful videos. I'm planning to start my trip (northern spain + Portugal) in the middle of may.
I’m right now riding ACT Portugal. Hopefully I find time soon to finish all videos from the last trip and the one I’m doing now. 🥰
Happy if I can inspire you and give you some good tips.

Inspiring is the right word. Last year I made the trip along the south coast from Barcelona to Lisbon. And thanks to your videos I decided to see the north this year.
Have fun! 🤙
Sounds like a great trip. Enjoy the ride!
