Asturias is the perfect place for switching off, getting tons of rest, and tuning in to friendly natural surroundings where you\u2019re sure to find moments of satisfaction.<\/h5>\n

We\u2019d like to suggest 6 really different places for switching off during your trip around this Natural Paradise.<\/p>\n

The Lakes of Somiedo, For A Change of Scenery<\/h2>\n

Somiedo Natural Park, which is both Asturias\u2019 first and also one of the 7 Biosphere Reserves in this autonomous community, is considered a natural wonder par excellence.<\/p>\n

One star route of this authentic hiking paradise<\/strong> follows the Lakes of Somiedo<\/a>: the Lago del Valle – the biggest in Asturias – and the three lakes of Saliencia: La Cueva, Calabazosa and La Mina.<\/p>\n

Redes Nature Park, A Very Green Biosphere Reserve<\/h2>\n

The Redes Nature Park<\/a> has it all: dreamy villages, leafy forests, incredible waterfalls, mountain passes, lakes, and the Nal\u00f3n river, the longest in Asturias, flowing through it like an artery.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s more, this Biosphere Reserve<\/strong>, established by the municipalities of Sobrescobio and Caso, is home to one of the world\u2019s oldest cheeses, Cas\u00edn, which is made using the unpasteurised milk of cows from Asturias or Caso and has a strong and lasting flavour.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Spots like Bra\u00f1agallones, Ubales lake, the Tabay\u00f3n del Mongay\u00fa waterfall, or the Alba Trail are true landmarks of Asturias\u2019 nature.<\/p>\n

The Large Limestone Massifs of The Picos De Europa<\/h2>\n

The Picos de Europa National Park<\/a>, once part of Covadonga Mountain, was the first of its kind in Spain. Its rich history, and the three large limestone massifs responsible for its unique morphology, make it one of western Europe\u2019s natural wonders.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s more, its legendary peaks, best exemplified by the Naranjo de Bulnes or Picu Urriellu, make it a mecca for mountaineers and rock climbers the world over.<\/p>\n

\"Panorama

It\u2019s also where you\u2019ll find places like the Lakes of Covadonga or the Royal Palace of Covadonga.<\/p>\n

Mount Naranco, An Unbeatable View Over the Asturian Capital<\/h2>\n

Mount Naranco is the quintessential carbay\u00f3n<\/em> (which means big oak in Asturian) mountain of Oviedo. It\u2019s a large and natural component of this city that has remained omnipresent throughout its history.<\/p>\n

You can also find two architectural jewels on the side of this mountain from the erstwhile Kingdom of Asturias<\/strong> – Santa Mar\u00eda del Naranco<\/a> and San Miguel de Lillo – which were declared World Heritage Sites by UNESCO.<\/p>\n

The El Fitu Overlook, For Admiring Both the Sea and the Mountains<\/h2>\n

The El Fitu Overlook<\/a>, some 1,100 metres above sea level in the municipality of Caravia, is a classic among places in Asturias with the best views. Its exceptional location grants you a 360-degree view spanning more than 100 km of coast and mountains<\/strong>, where you can gaze at the Sueve mountain range, the Ponga Natural Park and the Picos de Europa National Park.<\/p>\n

\"mirador<\/figure>\n

Cabu Pe\u00f1es, Or the North of The North<\/h2>\n

This is the northernmost point in Asturias, and you\u2019ll find it on the coast of the Goz\u00f3n municipality. It\u2019s a rural area with a gorgeous landscape, whose steep cliffs reach over a hundred metres high.\u00a0<\/p>\n

From Cabu Pe\u00f1es<\/a> you can admire small islands and rocky islets, among which La Erbosa, the second-largest island in Asturias, stands out.<\/p>\n
