Morra de Lechugales

Highlight • Summit

It is the highest peak of the Eastern Massif of Picos de Europa. It is a long hike with a lot of unevenness from Jito de Escarandi but the views are spectacular.

Mines of the Ándara Massif / Mazarrasa Mines

Highlight • Historical Site

The Eastern or Ándara Massif is one of the three large massifs that make up the mountain chain of Los Picos de Europa. Two types of mineralization benefited from it, one made up of pockets of calcite with caramelized sphalerite and some calamine. And another secondary type based on white and red calamine, some sphalerite and calcite gangue. This second type was exploited by Mr. Mazarrasa until its almost definitive exhaustion in these mines, in 1929.
