Where every path tells a story
The Redes Natural Park has a network of trails for all tastes and abilities, ranging from a long distance trail (G.R. 102.2 Camín Real del Sellón), through an important network of short distance trails, as well as local trails and an accessible path. You can find out more about all of them at the Casa del Agua, the Park Interpretation Center, and various websites and publications.
La Fuente la Nalona
Take a walk through the Puerto de Tarna, and you will see a sign next to the road that tells you how to get to this fountain. It is not just any fountain, no: it is the mother of the longest and most abundant river in Asturias, full of history and lyricism. The Nalón River. In addition, the Puerto de Tarna offers you one of those landscapes that stay in your mind? a historical place (with remains of forts), a passage of the Camín Real from Villaviciosa to Castila, and the beginning of several hiking trails.
The Tabayón del Mongallu
This is one of the most interesting routes in Redes. It will take you through a path that starts in the village of Tarna to a waterfall of more than 150 meters of almost vertical fall. You will walk in the shade of a magnificent beech forest, meadows, cross wooden bridges, and end up enjoying the waterfall... Don't forget your camera!
Brañagallones
You will be captivated, I assure you. It is one of the best known Vegas of Asturias, because it is beautiful. It is named after the grouse (aurochs), which in the old days had their "cantaderos" (places where the males ?exhibited? in the breeding season), you can walk from the village of Bezanes. The first slopes are a bit hard, we will not deny it, but the effort will be worth it. You can also go up in a tourist cab and start from the vega itself (where there is a refuge-restaurant) when walking?for example, towards El Cantu l'Osu?
Los Arrudos
Anyone you ask who has done this route will tell you about its stone steps?a leg breaker that, once overcome (and you will, of course) will take you through beech forests, mayaes, water, and of course, marking your way: the Arrudos gorge, one of the great river canyons of Asturias. From where? From Caleao.
Alba Route
The Ruta del alba is a pilgrimage route. I do not think that anyone who visits Redes has not walked it. If you leave your car at the entrance to Soto de Agues (there is a parking lot set up for this purpose) and drive through the village (you can choose from its bars and restaurants where to stop on the way back?) you will start walking along a well-drawn path that runs along the banks of the Alba River. Most of the section is pedestrianized, it has hardly any slope and, without realizing it, you will enter the heart of the gorge, amid waterfalls and in the shade of a riparian forest?until you reach the Cruz de los Ríos, where the landscape turns into meadows, dominated by the beech forests of Llaímo and the heights of El Retriñon.
Picu Cuyargayos
From the village of Ladines, which is well worth a visit, begins one of the variants of the ascent to this peak of 1,391 m. The car can be left right at the entrance of the village, in the parking lot. The car can be left right at the entrance of the village, in the parking lot. If the road is a pleasure (literally) for the senses, the arrival at the top will amaze you: the landscape is infinite. On a clear day, you will contemplate almost the entire Park; surely the Alba River Valley and its meadows, a string of mountains that treasure the secrets of Redes and a clear image of the villages of the council of Sobrescobio. Cuyargayos offers you more than what your sight can reach, you will have to come back!
