    Hiking

    The Canal del Embudo is a glacial channel in the Picos de Europa, in Spain. It is located in the western part of the national park, near the town of Fuente Dé. The canal is a popular hiking trail, and offers stunning views of the surrounding mountains.

    The Canal del Embudo was formed by the movement of a glacier thousands of years ago. The glacier was much larger than the current one, and its movement was responsible for carving the channel into the rock. The channel is now a narrow gorge, with rock walls rising more than 1,000 meters high.
