Walk up to ten miles a day through the rugged mountain landscape, swim in rock pools and rivers, and keep an eye open for wild horses and maybe even an Iberian wolf. Each night brings a different place to stay, ranging from a village house to a 12th Century monastery, with your luggage transferred ahead for you.
Seven nights B&B with four dinners and five picnics costs from £830pp, flights not included (inntravel.co.uk).
