ビエルソのおすすめツーリングルート

A beautiful climb, steady and challenging, surrounded by greenery. Beautiful views.

One of the highest points on the French Way of the Camino de Santiago, located between Triacastela and Fonfría, already in the province of Lugo. At 1,335 meters above sea level, this peak offers a natural viewpoint overlooking the Galician mountains. The area is often exposed to wind and changeable weather, even in summer, but the views and the feeling of having reached a milestone more than compensate. There's a hostel/bar right at the summit, useful as a stopping point for pilgrims and cyclists. Dress warmly before reaching the top: the temperature here can drop suddenly, even on sunny days. If you're on a mountain bike or e-bike, make sure you have good traction on descents and that your brakes are checked: the descent towards Fonfría is fast and winding. It's a good place to rest and refill your water or coffee before continuing.

The Lambrión Chupacandiles statue in Ponferrada is a bronze tribute to one of the most iconic figures of the local Semana Santa tradition. Installed in 2024 at the Church of San Andrés, the statue depicts a Nazareno in a black hooded robe, holding a bell—just as he parades through the city each year to announce the arrival of Holy Week. The figure, which originated in the 17th century, is linked to the Hermandad de Jesús Nazareno and takes its name from a legend that says he tasted wine and even oil from candlesticks along the way. Designed by Tomás Bañuelos and Soraya Triana, the sculpture has become a recognizable symbol of Ponferrada's religious heritage.

Enjoy a beautiful panorama.
