Ruta Piorno a os Fornos
- San Martín de Oscos
- Ruta circular
- 5,5 km
- 2h 30m
- Baja
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.
Frente al camino, al otro lado del valle, iremos viendo varias aldeas: primero Arne y Arruñada, luego Villanueva de San Cristóbal y después la Sierra de la Bobia. También podremos observar varios cortines (construcciones de piedra de forma circular, alrededor de las colmenas o trobos para resguardarlas de la fauna).
El paisaje nos sorprenderá con sus contrastes entre lo abrupto y lo suave, con sus sonidos: el río Soutelo, los pájaros,… la abundante vegetación autóctona: helechos, castaños, robles,… y la numerosa fauna: corzos, jabalís, zorros, azores y perdices.

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.
