From the rugged mountains of the Cantabrian Mountains and the green hills to the passionate Cantabrian Sea, Asturias, with its exultant beauty, offers you thousands of places to enjoy unique and unforgettable experiences.
The Asturias of the 40 cheeses invites you on a journey that you can start by following the tracks of the last brown bears or those left by the dinosaurs that once inhabited these lands, lands of ironworkers with whom you can discover the artisan tradition of the iron forges.
Experiences that you can wash down with the most emblematic drink, cider. There is nothing better than getting to know all the rituals that are celebrated around it with a good espicha or a cider pouring course. For those who prefer good wine , Asturias is also a land of high mountain vineyards where its wineries are sheltered. Savouring its rich wines with a pairing of Asturian cheeses is a good option for the most exquisite palates.
The high mountains are also home to one of the most prized delicacies in gastronomy, Cabrales cheese , which is matured in the natural caves of the Picos de Europa. There, visitors will have the opportunity to discover all the secrets of how this cheese is made.
And from the green mountains to the blue sea that splashes over them. With more than 345 kilometres of coastline, Asturias boasts authentic seaside towns full of charisma and flavour, with its incredible bufones and unique landscape as its hallmarks. A gastronomic workshop, a visit to any of its caves or discovering unique spots in the narrow streets of its villages are just some of the options offered by the Cantabrian Sea.
From the salt water to the fresh water of its rivers, rivers where you can become a real gold digger or canoe the waters of the Sella, the most international of all its rivers.
Back on the mainland, black coal still emanates from the heart of its lands. Asturias invites you on a unique journey through its mines and galleries. The industrial heritage is also the essence of an Asturias that still conserves a unique and singular architecture, those of the houses of the indianos, Asturians who one day left their homes in search of a better future in the Americas. Staying in these rooms and being transported to another era is a unique experience.
The setting for numerous film scenes, the Principality has been used as a film set by great directors of national and international cinema. In search of these scenes, you can also explore the more metropolitan Asturias. Oviedo, Gijón and Avilés are dynamic cities, full of history and culture. The perfect triangle to complete a great incentive trip.
