Οι καλύτερες διαδρομές και πεζοπορίες Allande

One of the great Asturian mountain passes, without a doubt. Generally unknown to the general public, it's rarely used in professional races. It has two clearly distinct slopes. The southern slope, which begins in Pola de Allande, is gentle and steady, along a road in good condition. It shares much of its climb with Puerto del Palo, which it turns off from just 3 km from the summit of Puerto de la Marta. The northern slope, which comes from Villayon, is uneven, with very tough sections and several rest stops and descents. It reminds me a lot of the Croix-de-Fer from Sant Jean de Maurienne, not because of the landscape, but because of the type of pass.

Besullo offers an authentic experience of rural Asturian life, combining its rich history with beautiful landscapes and a unique cultural heritage. Besullo was recognized as the most beautiful village in Asturias and is notable for its collection of granaries and breadbaskets, for being the hometown of Alejandro Casona, the Asturian writer, and for its tradition of blacksmiths.

This one shelter was used to change clothes on our tour (with storms and wind).

A museum - free admission on Tuesdays. Otherwise, the prices are reasonable.

A collegiate church with its doors open. Which is very rare. The interior is very beautiful.

A nice little village with 1,000 inhabitants. There's a grocery store, but don't expect much. The prices are okay, though.

Highly recommended, it can be done together with the Palo departing from Pola, the Marta is shorter but with a steeper slope

It is known for its hydroelectric dam on the Navia River, forming the Salime Reservoir. It is also an important stop on the Primitive Way of St. James, the last stretch of Asturian land before entering Galicia.
