Took at day off to visit El Caurel National Park between Leon and Galicia. We started out at 240m. Slate is still quarried here and is used on the roofs of the houses. In the picture you can also see beehives ontop of the slate roofs.
We then climbed up to 1400m to walk along a ridge. The views were fantastic as were the variety of wild flowers a few of which are pictured below.
I don´t have a clue about the names of the different species but we were impressed with the numbers of different plants in a short space.

A new highway is being built to this area so the impact will be interesting to note.
