Cycling Spots around Western Asturias
Asturias
The west of Asturias is the most isolated part of the region. That means less crowds and most of the time, quiet and empty roads.
Most of the territory is part of two Natural Parks, Somiedo and Fuentes del Narcea, Degaña e Ibias, so the visitor will find beautiful landscapes all around.
These parks are also the home of some endangered species, like the Cantabric brown bear or the Capercaillie.
Cycling has multiple possibilities in the Area, with some La Vuelta end of Stages like La Farrapona or El Acebo.
Other alternatives are El Puerto de Ventana, Leitariegos, Valle de Lago, Somiedo… you would need several days to ride them all!
Cangas de Narcea is the main town of the area, with good alternatives for lodging and discovering Asturias cuisine.
Another feasible option would be Pola de Somiedo; smaller but with plenty of charm.
