Fancy a walk?

Don’t forget your hiking boots

Yordas Peak

Starting at the northern tip of the Riaño reservoir in a town called Liegos, this 20km out-and-back trail features over 1,000m of climbing to get to Yordas’ 1,966m peak. From the top you can view the Picos de Europa range to the north while below you lies the entire Riaño reservoir.

Ruta del Cares

The end of the road in Caín de Valdeón marks the start of one of the most famous hiking trails in the world. The trail was blasted into the Cares Gorge over 100 years ago to connect Posada de Valdeón to Puente Poncebos in the north. It is a 12km technical hike but the dramatic cliffs and gorges make the route one to savour.

Covadonga Lakes

The Lagos de Covadonga route along the northern edge of the Picos allows you to combine riding and hiking. The famously tough road ascent leads to a gentle hiking loop around two high-altitude lakes, Enol and Ercina, and panoramic lookout spots.
