I like to travel, and so I find myself frequently reading travel blogs. They're usually in English, however, and so I thought it would be a good idea to try reading some in French or Spanish to help me improve in those languages.

I do a lot of hiking and cycling, so I'd prefer something with more of an outdoor angle, as opposed to one, for example, about someone who focuses on big cities or museums. I'd also like them to have some decent pictures. They don't have to be professional photographers, but nice pictures definitely make it more interesting.

Thanks for any suggestions

Although I don't really like El PaĆ­s in general, their travel page is pretty good:

I'm not sure it's exactly what you're looking for, but you can check it out and see. :)

It sounds like you'd also like Viaja por libre:

Another one I like is Trajinando por el mundo:

Thanks a lot for those. I'll check them all out on the weekend, when I have a little more time.

For French, you might wish to check out the following:

Figaro Voyage

Le Monde Voyage

Blogs de voyage

The last one is actually a platform allowing people to create their own travel blog in French. If you go to the "Annuaire des blogs" you will find the complete list of blogs available.

This is not exactly a travel blog, but its author, a Colombian guy, travels a lot and
writes his impressions of his trips abroad:
http://blogdebanderas.com/. It's in Spanish, and
it's one of my favourite blogs.
