Full description

To make the most of the excursion, we start at the Entrelagos viewpoint to enjoy an unbeatable panoramic view of the Ercina and Enol lakes.

We explain the park, its mountains and its curiosities. The spectacular views of the park will leave an indelible memory forever. Our next stop will be the Basilica of Covadonga, built in 1877 in neo-Romanesque style.

Taking advantage of Don Pelayo and the beginning of the Reconquest, history of which boasts every Asturian and where the famous expression "Asturias is Spain and the rest conquered land" comes from.

During our stop at the sanctuary we will have time to see the cave of the Virgin of Covadonga, where the tomb of King Pelayo and the Santina are located.

Our lunch stop will be in Cangas de Onís. Here, if you feel like it, you can enjoy a full menu in a typical Asturian restaurant, where we will accompany you so that you can try typical dishes of the local gastronomy such as fabada, stewed kid or cod Asturian style - if you request it in your reservation.

Otherwise, you will have two hours of free time to eat at your leisure: we will recommend you the most interesting places, such as the Roman Bridge, which dates back to the High Middle Ages and is one of the most representative images of the autonomous community. 

The return trip will be the perfect time to rest after a long day and we will be back in Oviedo around 7:30 pm.
