Let's face it, summers are rather hot in Spain... but where can you escape the heat if sand, elbow-to-elbow towels and the built-up coasts don't appeal? Go West! Trace the spine of the central mountain system as far and deep as you can get before you turn Portuguese and you'll find the answer. In the Sierra de Gata and las Hurdes, cool clean water tumbles out of the mountains into perfect natural swimming holes. Being so utterly civilized, Spaniards wouldn't dream of enjoying a place like this without tapas and cold beer nearby and in the town of Hoyos, the town hall has even set up a free riverside library so that you catch up on your Quixotes.
