could be tricky to explore Northern Spain without a car. We had a rental car and that gave us a lot of freedom. For our own convenience we started the hike from Poncebos. There were good options to park the car for free for several days and a cheap hostel to sleep before hitting the trail. Other starting points would be Sotres, Lagos de Covadonga, Posada de Valdéon and Fuente Dé. We drove all the way from Barcelona but you could also fly to Bilbao and rent a car there. For example, from Bilbao it's over two hours of driving to Poncebos. ",[],{"title":1045,"text":9952},[9953,9956],{"type":94,"text":9954,"spans":9955,"direction":97},"Water is a real concern in the whole Picos de Europa park. Water sources on the high mountains are drying up. For example in Refugio Vega de Ario they have a fountain outside but by the late afternoon the water flow reduced to droplets. However, in the morning the flow was stronger again. That being said, you shouldn't trust the natural water sources, but luckily there are many refugios along the way and they would have bottled water for purchase.

Even though some refugios accept cards, it's not guaranteed that there's service.
