Description
Explore some of Asturias' most spectacular landscapes on this full-day excursion that combines mountains, nature, and local tradition.
The experience begins with a trip to the Somiedo Natural Park, one of the best-preserved natural areas in northern Spain. From the Alto de la Farrapona, you'll reach the Saliencia Lakes, where you can enjoy the surroundings of Lago de la Cueva and Lago Negro and head to the Mirador de la Cueva, surrounded by a landscape of glacial origin with open views of the mountains. During your free time, you can walk around at your own pace and enjoy one of the most iconic corners of the Cantabrian Mountains.
The route continues to Pola de Somiedo, the capital of the council, where you will take a short orientation tour and have some free time to discover the local atmosphere and enjoy Asturian cuisine.
In the afternoon, the excursion heads to the municipality of Proaza, home to the well-known Senda del Oso.
