These type of floods happen every autumn but I can't remember a year with the damage and loss as bad as this. Thoughts with all those people affected

Lanjarón this morning from the dog walk. A fine day but rain is forecast this afternoon and for the next few days. Good news for the land. Snow above 2000 meters.

Photos from the Tabernas desert badlands hike I did a few days ago. The whole area is a a chaotic mass of broken rock and battered, crumbling cliffs

A strange thing to come across yesterday whilst hiking in the Taberna's desert badlands of Almeria! Any idea what this was and why it was here? 🤣

Today I hiked in a place close to my heart and stood in the exact same footsteps as Clint Eastwood and Eli Wallach in "The Good, the Bad & the Ugly". This view never fails to stir the senses, I love i...

River walking with a lovely group of people from Norway today. Inside the dense, lush foliage the air was cool, was even colder in the waterfall! 😂 A classic hike for a hot Spanish day
