Camping La Viorna

The site’s Liébana valley setting is reached by venturing through a spectacular gorge hewn out of the Picos de Europa mountains; with tons of walking trails around the valley, hiking is a principal draw around here, as walkers are taken along trails between the likes of Dobarganes village and Pico Jano; Pembes and Cosgaya, Urdón and Tresviso and Fuente Dé and Liordes. For a spot of lofty sightseeing, take to the Fuente Dé cable car from drivable Fuente Dé: best hold onto your hats, as it speeds in four minutes to the top of the Picos Massif, 1823 metres above sea level; and when you get there, brace yourself further for the spectacularness of the vistas. For further scenic sightseeing, the ancient forests of Tama and Cillórigo are a quick and simple drive too, and you can reach the edge of the Picos de Europa National Park in around 15 minutes’ drive. If you’re into delving into local history that’s within walking distance, then there’s plenty of of that also: the local town of Potes has a splendid old quarter to stroll around, and the spectacular 12th-century Santo Toribio de Liébana monastery is less than 20 minutes’ walk from the site.
