In our region the route starts at Penarronda beach, declared a natural monument for its high environmental values, a beach that holds the blue flag and where you can not miss a good swim.
Continue through the countryside and along the cliffs, enjoy the green and the sea. The next stop is the beach of Arnao, sheltered cove where we can cool off with a quiet swim and finish in Figueras, charming fishing village whose route we recommend, another interesting option is to take a boat ride on the estuary of the Eo.

We start the walk in the old station of San Tirso de Abres, today restored for private housing, finding the first of the six tunnels just 300 m away, continuing next to the river Eo enjoying every moment of great panoramic views of the riverbed, of incalculable ecological and fish value, in which abound a large number of aquatic species, the most characteristic being trout, lamprey and salmon. Later the path crosses the N-640 road and leads us to an old power station built in 1932, located just before crossing another of the tunnels drilled in the rock, which leaves us close to the pedestrian walkway over the river Eo.
Escondida entre montañas y bosques del occidente asturiano, la Cascada del Cioyo es uno de esos lugares que parecen sacados de un cuento. El sonido del agua al caer, la vegetación exuberante que la rodea y la paz del entorno hacen de este rincón un destino ideal para quienes buscan conectar con la naturaleza. Una caminata entre árboles, pequeñas cascadas y paisajes que invitan a parar y respirar. Al final del recorrido, la gran cascada del Cioyo se abre paso con fuerza entre la roca, regalando una imagen de belleza salvaje difícil de olvidar.
The route starts in the square of Sta. Eulalia de Oscos descending to the lower part of the village and continuing along a beautiful path surrounded by native forest that leads us to Ferreirela de Baxo, a place where it is worth stopping and visiting the Museo Casa Natal del Marqués de Sargadelos.
The route starts in Villanueva, capital of the council, from where we leave in the direction of Santa Eufemia where there is still a beautiful chapel of popular baroque style built between the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries that deserves to be visited. Continuing the itinerary along the road and after about three hundred meters of walking, we reach the Castañeira Bridge, and after crossing it we must take a path that goes off to the right, reaching a splendid birch forest next to the abandoned farmhouse of Abilleira.
From the municipal capital we go to the exit of the town towards Galicia, finding ourselves on the right hand side with the San Isidro square in whose center is the chapel with the same name, coinciding with the starting point of the route.
