The tourist destination Riaño Mountain is located in the
northeast of the province of León, being delimited in its northern part by the Cantabrian mountain range, and more specifically by the largest limestone massif of Atlantic Europe: The Picos de Europa, which were so named for being the first image of the Old Continent that could be seen from the sea.
The orogenic movements and the course of time have originated a perfect territory for the fauna of the Cantabrian mountain range, deciding to inhabit or return to it, procreating in its mountains (wolf, bear, bear and other animals).The orogenic movements and the passing of time have created a perfect territory for the fauna of the Cantabrian mountain range to live or return, breeding in its mountains (wolf, bear, chamois, roe deer...) and nesting in its cliffs (bearded vultures), allowing us to observe, with respect and without interfering in their activity, their behavior and organization in herds or in families.
The wolf track is not only the protagonist of stories and legends and the inducer of engineering in the Riaño Mountains, such as the Chorcos de Valdeón and Prioro, but it has also been captured in the history of the region.The four river basins that cross the territory from north to south (Cea, Esla, Porma and Curueño), which together with the riverbanks, form the five wolf track pads.
To these river basins must be added those that flow into the Atlantic (Sella and Deva), forming a perfect habitat for trout and a paradise for river fishing enthusiasts.
