After a beautiful gravel climb, you reach this plateau with stunning views (including the Picos de Europa in the distance). The path then continues for a long time at altitude, with many cows and horses. Take a look: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OgEcgF17RDw

Indeed, a beautiful spot with breathtaking views, both towards the Picos de Europa and other Cantabrian mountains. The (gravel) road there is also stunning; just take a look: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OgEcgF17RDw

Attractive location, on a cycle path. There is a cafeteria open throughout the day in the gardens just opposite the Gran Hotel Balneario De Puente Viesgo.

Beginning of the Pas greenway. The route runs along the old railway line, so there are no large slopes. Ideal for everyone
