The Mirador del Cable is located right next to the upper station of the Fuente Dé cable car at an altitude of 1,847 meters. It offers panoramic views of the peaks closest to the central massif of the Picos de Europa, the Liébana Valley and the Cantabrian Mountains.

Hiking

You can take the bus from Potes to Fuente De. Just arrived at the lower cable car station you can either decide to take the cable car which takes you up by 750 m in 5 minutes, or hike one of the existing hiking paths. The view from the top is worth it.
