The route starts in the town of Tol. At the crossroads of the church of San Salvador, follow the signs to the parking area Fontequias, in the vicinity of the neighborhood of Cabaleiros.
After leaving the vehicle, we head up the mountain on a paved road. On the way, we will see one of the most important cattle ranches in Asturias in terms of head of cattle, production and prizes. If you are interested in approaching it, the owners will be pleased to help you. Leaving the place of Boudois behind, we find a dirt road on the right that leads to the mine. At this point, the asphalt gives way to a nice path that runs through lush vegetation along the left bank of the Boudois stream. Turning right at the next crossroads we can see the remains of the furnace of the old iron mine. At this point an explanatory panel tells us some curiosities about it. We continue ascending to finally reach the top of Mount Arbedosa from where we can see a panoramic view that will undoubtedly surprise the traveler for its spectacular and chromatic variety. The blue of the coast blends with the green of the coast that appears tinted with black and white specks that make up small villages. It is worth stopping for a moment in Arbedosa and play to discover in the distance corners like Penarronda beach. From this point the route continues along an unpaved dirt track that descends to take us to the starting point.
The route starts in the center of Vegadeo in the area known as the Fondrigo, located at the exit to Galicia. From here we start the ascent to Miou, where we will find a crossroads where the path forks and we can go on either side, since from this point the route is circular.
Antiguo Camino de Santiago que acogía a los romeros llegados por la Ría del Eo.
We begin the route in San Martín de Oscos where we can see the parish church, with a Latin cross plan, large porticoed space and inscription of 1828. To the right of the facade we observe one of the most characteristic hórreos of the Oscos with a mixed roof (slate and straw), which corresponds to the primitive models. In front of the church we have the mansion of the Guzmanes, an old manor house of the XVIII century, which preserves in the portico of its main entrance a coat of arms carved in stone. We cross the bridge that crosses the San Martín river to begin the ascent to Mount Marón, entering a small forest of birch and oak trees, which make our walk even more pleasant.

Iniciamos la ruta en el pueblo de Piorno, que se recomienda recorrer porque conserva excelentes muestras de arquitectura tradicional de los Oscos en piedra, pizarra y madera.
In the Teixo and just behind the hostel starts the forest track along which begins the walk to the Alto de Ouroso. The path is wide and passable by all-terrain vehicles, so there is hardly any possibility of getting lost. The route runs comfortably between wide pastures, heaths and pine forests of repopulation to reach a landing on which there is a small lagoon where at mid-morning many horses come to this point to water and refresh themselves in the shade of the pines. The animals graze in a semi-wild state and require little attention from their owners, which is why the number of horses has increased considerably in recent years.
