And in the end, I returned to Northern Spain, this year too, for my usual late spring/early summer trip. Also because I wanted to take advantage of the newly camperized van. I did windsurfing, surfing, and also some amazing trekking!

Another adventurous trip to Northern Spain - June 2025

This article will not be just a report of windsurfing sessions. A trip to Cantabria, Asturias, and Galicia offers much more. I also considered other alternative destinations (Ireland, Morocco, Canary Islands, Oman, ....), but, in the end, the charm of the green landscapes of the northern coast of Spain, the beauty of its beaches, the lack of crowds, the spectacular climate, and the ideal conditions it can offer for waveriding, and for surfing convinced me to return for the fifth time to those parts. And I inaugurated and tested the  Ford Transit Custom, which I camperized last winter. To end the trip in style, I also explored the area of ​​the Picos d'Europa National Park with two beautiful treks, to the Vega de Urriellu Refuge, and along the Ruta del Cares. But let's proceed in order.

Thus began, on Thursday 19th, my journey of about 1500 km, returning to Italy, with the usual intermediate stop in France, near Othez (200 km north of Toulouse). Southern France gave me 39 degrees, and the passage from Monginevro the usual summer storm (13 degrees, at the pass).

In conclusion, it was another beautiful trip, full of discoveries and experiences, which will now be difficult to give up when the good weather arrives.

Hasta lluego. Fabio
