"Himno a la Montaña" (Spanish pronunciation: [ˈimno a la monˈtaɲa], "Hymn to the Mountain"), or "Himno de Cantabria" ("Anthem of Cantabria"), is the official anthem of the Spanish autonomous community of Cantabria. It was composed in 1926 by Juan Guerrero Urresti at the behest of the then Provincial Council of Santander (Diputación Provincial de Santander), and subsequent arrangements were made by José del Río Sainz, establishing it as the region's official anthem.
