Among the theories surrounding the unusual name of this mountain pass, one is the popular legend that some shepherdesses were caught in a blizzard and died in a nearby shelter. In any case, the pass is located in a stunning setting.

Mythical port in the province of Asturias for cyclists. From Cecos, this port awaits us with an altitude of 1,315 meters above sea level, a gradient of 1,024 m and a length of 19.39km with an average % of 5.28 and a maximum slope of 10%.

The Pozo de las Mujeres Muertas port has 3 slopes, all 3 hard and with ramps above 10%. 1. The eastern slope, which begins in Monasterio del Hermo, has 2 well-differentiated areas, with a second part of 4 km at 10% on average. The road is wide and has smooth asphalt in very good condition. With hardly any trees or traffic. 2. The west slope, which begins in San Antolín de Ibias, is longer and harder than the previous one, with 2 rest sections (including a small downhill section). The ramps are constant and have long straights. It is usually windy as it is a climb without any trees. The road is like the eastern slope. 3. The northern slope, which comes from the Valledor (gold valley), has nothing to do with the previous 2. Narrow and bumpy road, it has the appearance of old ports. It is hard and with constant ramps. With hardly any trees, although the wind blows less. For me, the best aspect. Absence of sources in the 3 slopes. You have to recharge at the starting locations. I once ran out of water on a hot day... and I had a hard time

The port of Connio is located within the “Port Route” of southwestern Asturias, which also includes the port of Pozo de las Mujeres Muertas. The climb crosses the Muniellos Biosphere Reserve, an authentic natural paradise. I recommend making a stop at a viewpoint in the rest area in the middle of the port (Mirador de Muniellos). I also recommend visiting the interpretation center, which is accessed by turning off the main road and going up a difficult section. For more details on the climb from Ventanueva, I recommend visiting the profile and description of Carlos Vega. https://www.carlosvega.net/ascensiones/159/el-connio-por-ventanueva-cangas-del-narcea

Alto de Pedras Apañadas on the border between Asturias and Galicia, the peak at 1200 masl is steep, but the descent will be sweet. Spectacular views across the valleys below and surrounding peaks.

You have to leave the bike upstairs, you can't get to the third waterfall,

Crossing point of the Route of the Ports from Cangas del Narcea. The route up to here offers us excellent views of the beautiful surroundings of western Asturias.
