Puente Dobra was a key crossing point in the Middle Ages between the Castilian plateau and Asturias across the Cantabrian Mountains, via the Arcediano Trail. Today, it is a popular meeting place for bathers seeking to cool off in the turquoise waters of the Sella River during the summer.

Arriondas is one of the most vibrant towns in Asturias. In recent years, its popularity has increased thanks to the international Sella River descent. Its privileged location among the mountains makes it an ideal starting point for a multitude of outdoor sports.

Although it is called Roman, its construction dates back to the High Middle Ages, probably the 13th century. There is a high probability that it was built on earlier Roman foundations. Whatever its date, the Cangas Bridge is one of the most emblematic monuments of Asturias. The river below the bridge is often quite deep, and swimmers can be seen jumping from the surrounding rocks.

The Les Praeres pass, meaning "meadows" in Spanish, is a beautiful crossing point for the surrounding peaks. There's also a bar and restaurant with a mountain atmosphere. As if that weren't enough, there's a deer, rescued as a puppy by the bar's owner, who freely roams the area like a pet.
