빌라욘‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪6‬개의 산길

One of the great Asturian mountain passes, without a doubt. Generally unknown to the general public, it's rarely used in professional races. It has two clearly distinct slopes. The southern slope, which begins in Pola de Allande, is gentle and steady, along a road in good condition. It shares much of its climb with Puerto del Palo, which it turns off from just 3 km from the summit of Puerto de la Marta. The northern slope, which comes from Villayon, is uneven, with very tough sections and several rest stops and descents. It reminds me a lot of the Croix-de-Fer from Sant Jean de Maurienne, not because of the landscape, but because of the type of pass.

It's one of the major mountain passes in southwestern Asturias. It connects Pola de Allande with Berducedo. It's part of the northern variant of the Camino de Santiago. Highly recommended for its views, whether climbing its two slopes or from its summit.

Spectacular climb, quite comfortable because it doesn't have steep ramps, but be careful, it goes up a steep slope.

Highly recommended, it can be done together with the Palo departing from Pola, the Marta is shorter but with a steeper slope

a spectacular and pleasant climb without large ramps

Beautiful climb with stunning views to Pola and El Palo. The pass will take you towards Bustantigo, with stunning views to the ancient Roman gold mine "La Freita" to then descend towards Viyallon or down to the enchanting village of Pontenova to then ascend to Montefurau. From Montefurau continue back to Pola de Allande via El Palo (enjoying a different perspective of La Freita) or towards Berducedo.

Nice pass from Pola de Allande that takes you to Bustantigo via Brana el Campel along a stunning road with views to the Ancient Roman gold mine "La Freita" to your left. Alternative route to descend to the magical village of Pontenova sitting in a deep valley to then return along a steep climb to Montefurau. Continue back to Pola de Allande vial El Palo or towards Berducedo. Plenty of options.

Tremendous ascent of the Camino Primitivo, it is done entirely by road (there is an alternative for walkers, but frankly little or not at all cyclable). It is long, although the slopes are not great and there is little traffic, so it is pleasant, especially for the views.
