Pola de Somiedo

Pola de Somiedo is a charming town with narrow streets, colorful houses, and traditional architecture. Take a stroll through the town to soak up its atmosphere and stop by the local cafes and restaurants to sample Asturian cuisine. You can also visit the Ethnographic Museum, dedicated to the history and culture of Somiedo, and learn about traditional Asturian crafts, agriculture, and livestock.

Camping Lagos de Somiedo

Highlight • Rest Area

This is a very nice and quiet campsite to take a break and base yourself for a couple of nights. They have an area where vehicles are not allowed, so you'll be setting up your tent next to other texts exclusively. There is a small stream of water going by the campsite and there are many possibilities for walks and hikes in the area. Pricing is good for bikers and you can even get a meal at their restaurant. Nevertheless, we recommend you do some groceries at Pola de Somiedo before heading here since you can only purchase basic things up here like pasta, tomato sauce or bread at the campsite.

Restaurante Casa Cobrana

Highlight • Restaurant

Good restaurant with nice outdoor terrace on the cycle route El Valle / Valle del Lago. Be aware of the Asturian size lunch portions (pictured the starter for one person) so make sure you're very hungry or order less. After lunch roll back home downhill ;-)
