バルデピエラゴのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

Calmly

There is no rush

Nocedo Waterfall, also known as Cola de Caballo Waterfall, is one of the most accessible and spectacular natural spots in the Central León Mountains, located near Nocedo de Curueño, in the municipality of Valdepiélago. Approximately 4 meters high, it was formed by the Valdecésar stream as it negotiates a steep drop on its way to the Curueño River.

The Hermitage of San Froilán, located at the top of Peña de Valdorria (municipality of Valdepiélago, León), is one of the most emblematic and spiritual places in the León mountains. It stands at an altitude of 1,430 meters, perched among cliffs, and is accessed via a steep staircase with 365 steps carved into the rock, one for each day of the year.

Polvoredo (2007 m) is the closest peak to the city of León above 2000 meters high. Going up from Vegacervera you will gain more than 1000 meters of elevation gain in just 7 kilometers, so get ready for a demanding climb. The climb is constant and with slopes up to almost 40%, which makes the descent along the same path difficult if you are not used to intense hiking. But you can be sure that the effort is worth it - the views are impressive, from the top you can see its neighbor Peña Galicia and all along the way we see the towns of Villalfeide, Coladilla, Vegacervera and Villar del Puerto.

It is 50 meters from the road. It is accessed by some footbridges. Bike on the shoulder Please be calm: be discreet

Also known as Cascada de Valdecesar or Cola de Caballo, it has become popular in recent times. Easily accessible if we park the car on the side of the road or if we are more adventurous, we can do the route from Valdorria through the Forest of Fairies or Támbore, where we must go carefully if we go in rainy or winter seasons due to to icy and/or slippery areas.

365 steps separate the Hermitage of San Froilán and the town of Valdorria. From the hermitage we will have wonderful views of the Forest of the Fairies and the town of Leon.
