Not many bears in this part of the world. There has been big efforts in northern Spain to preserve their population and they are having some success. Most of them in a couple of regions in the north.

Thanks! We usually carry bear spray with us on hikes, but bear attacks are not very common anyways. But if they do attack you, fight back or play dead are probably better options than trying to run away.

Great photos! Not sure if I would fight back in case a bear attacked me, as per the sign post.
