Riocorvo is a small and picturesque village, just 5 km from Torrelavega towards Reinosa, which developed around the Camino Real that linked the ports of Suances and Santander with the Meseta (exactly 6 leagues from Santander), and this strategic point of the town left us a legacy of emblazoned mansions on both sides of this artery so important for Santander at the end of the Modern Age.
A walk along the Camino Real in Riocorvo is to look history in the face. Its old houses and the involvement of its neighbors in their renovation earned Riocorvo the nomination as a Town of Cantabria 2021.
