The route starts in Madrid and heads north past Soria towards La Rioja, Spain's famous wine producing area. For a bit of "Camino de Santiago," the pilgrims' route to Santiago de Compostela, we drive past monumental places such as Arnedo, Calahorra and Logroño.
The rural route goes through Victoria to Bilbao, the largest city in the Basque region with the attraction of the world-famous Guggenheim Museum, only the building designed by Frank Gehri is worth the visit in itself el. The largest and most varied indoor market in Europe is the Mercado de la Ribera, housed in a building from the early XX th century. It is a traditional authentic market and well worth a visit!
Via Santander to the wild nature reserve of the "Picos". Picos de Europa is one of the most beautiful natural areas of Spain with an area of 64,660 hectares. Via the coastal town of San Vicente to the atmospheric city of Oviedo, which is actually a museum in itself. Via Leon to Salamanca. Salamanca is a lively city with a vibrant nightlife and an ideal place for a tapas tour. Just cozy plaza mayor and the stunning architecture in the center make Salamanca a must visit. Then from Salamanca to Madrid. If there is still time left, Toledo is definitely recommended.
