Route Espinaredo, Piloña

From Infiesto to Espinaredo and Riofabar. Piloña. Central area of ​​Asturias.

Just three kilometers from the rural center, along the winding road that leads to Riofabar, we discover two excellent places to rest: the La Pesanca recreational area and the Miera Arboretum, located on the banks of the Infierno river. Without a doubt, an excursion to do with the little ones of the house.
