Spain's Sendero Histórico

"The Sendero Histórico, or GR1, is a long traverse of northern Spain from west to east over 1250km of remote country and mountain walking. Crossing the Cantabrian mountains, the plains of Navarre and the foothills of the Pyrenees, and visiting 6 provinces, this fascinating trail traces Spain's history along the Medieval Moorish-Christian frontier. Arguably one of the best long-distance paths in Spain, the GR1 features stunning views and ancient sites along centuries-old tracks. Although a great distance in total, it can be tackled in sections and the walking is accessible for any well-prepared trekker."--Page [4] of cover.
