The Principality of Asturias is widely famous for being a natural paradise from coast to coast.<\/p>\n<p>Natural parks, capes, beaches, waterfalls, mountains, charming villages and delicious gastronomy, make the Principality of Asturias one of the richest regions of the country. Here are 5 natural sites in Asturias that you cannot miss on your next visit to the autonomous community.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>The 5 natural places in Asturias that you cannot miss.<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Asturias has a little bit of everything, and especially for school trips it is a very attractive option. The top 5 natural sites in Asturias starts with Lakes of Covadonga.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>\n<h2><strong>Covadonga Lakes.<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>We have decided to start with one of the places with the greatest natural beauty: the most famous route of the whole region. Since it is very well communicated and accessible to everyone, it has become one of the most popular routes for those who visit Asturias for the first time.<\/p>\n<p>The visit to the Covadonga Lakes is so popular with visitors that access by car. The routes will show you the set of lakes of Covadonga, which is made up of three lakes: Ercina, Bricial and Enol. Amazing beauty of the surroundings and the lakes is something you cannot miss on your next visit to Asturias.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li>\n<h2><strong>Natural sites in Asturias: Picos de Europa.<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>The most famous National Park in Spain, Picos de Europa, extends through Cantabria, Leon and Asturias. Visiting this place is quite an experience, being ideal for adventurers and mountaineers of all kinds. The scenic exhibition offers something for everyone&#8217;s likes, where you will find natural spaces such as rivers, impressive mountains, lakes, valleys, forests and waterfalls.<\/p>\n<p>The highest part of the national park is located in the Urrieles massif. Fourteen of the peaks here are over 2,600 meters high, with Torre Cerredo being the highest at 2,650 meters.<\/p>\n<p>It is the third highest mountain in the Iberian Peninsula and is located next to other very important massifs such as the Naranjo de Bulnes or Picu Urriellu, which has a relevant history in Spanish mountaineering.<\/p>\n<p>This last peak was conquered for the first time in 1904 by Pedro Pidal and his companion known as Cainejo. This ascent is considered the birth of mountaineering in the country.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"3\">\n<li>\n<h2><strong>Somiedo<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>One of the most recommended parks to visit is the Natural Park of Somiedo. The landscapes, flora and fauna are amazing. Delicious gastronomy of the locality and the warmth of its people make it an exceptional place.<\/p>\n<p>The scenic beauty of the place is very varied, highlighting its impressive lakes, such as Saliencia and del Valle. Also, we can find in the town the famous teitos, which are constructions formerly used by the vaqueiros, which were made with broom roofing.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"4\">\n<li>\n<h2><strong>Muniellos Forest.<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>It is one of the oldest and most extensive forests in Spain, with a total of 2000 hectares. The forest is mainly composed of oaks, but also other species of the Atlantic forest.<\/p>\n<p>The Muniellos Forest is one of the natural sites in Asturias that you can not miss, for being of great environmental richness and having a state of conservation \u00absemi-virgin\u00bb. In addition, since it has been carried out an enormous work of promotion, it has become a heritage of this region.<\/p>\n<p>This is why it is necessary to have authorization to enter the forest, since only 20 people can enter per day. For this reason, we recommend booking well in advance.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"5\">\n<li>\n<h2><strong>The buffoons of Pr\u00eda.<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>The buffoons of Pr\u00eda are located near Llanes in the town of Llames de Pr\u00eda. In geology, a buf\u00f3n is basically a formation consisting of a vertical hole formed a few meters from the edge of a limestone cliff, which connects or communicates with the sea.<\/p>\n<p>This formation causes that when the tide rises and the waves burst with force, it expels upwards the pulverized sea water, which generates a very peculiar sound to which it is given the name of buf\u00f3n. This column of water product of the collision of the wave with this geological formation, can reach more than 10 meters high, and the sound can be heard several kilometers away.<\/p>\n<p>Another reason to visit this place is that very close by is the beautiful Guadam\u00eda beach, one of the most beautiful beaches in the Principality of Asturias.<\/p>\n<p>To summarize, the Principality of Asturias has unmissable places ideal for a school trip or a family vacation. The natural variety is amazing, and some of these places are just a sample of that reality.<\/p>\n<p><strong>You may also be interested in:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/etheriatrips.com\/en\/blog\/end-of-year-trip-donana-in-3-days\/\"><strong>Itinerary for an end-of-year trip in Do\u00f1ana in 3 days.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/etheriatrips.com\/en\/blog\/multiadventure-activities-end-of-year-trip-donana\/\"><strong>Multiadventure activities for an end-of-year trip to Do\u00f1ana<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/etheriatrips.com\/en\/blog\/organize-end-of-year-trip-donana\/\"><strong>How to organize an end-of-year trip to Do\u00f1ana.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/etheriatrips.com\/en\/blog\/what-to-do-on-end-of-year-trip-donana\/\"><strong>What to do on your end-of-year trip to Do\u00f1ana<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/etheriatrips.com\/en\/blog\/english-summer-camps\/\"><strong>Are English summer camps worth attending?<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/etheriatrips.com\/en\/blog\/multi-adventure-summer-camps\/\"><strong>Multi-adventure summer camps: Are they worth it?<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The natural sites in Asturias have become one of the main demands for tourism in this autonomous community.
