Jednodniowa wycieczka rowerowa z Cangas de Onís do Amieva

Set off from the lively town of Cangas de Onís, a gateway to the Picos de Europa and famous for its Roman bridge spanning the Sella River. This route takes you deep into Asturian mountain country and to the quiet village of Amieva. Be ready for an adventurous ride: it’s around 69 km with plenty of climbing (more than 4,100 meters ascent awaits!), weaving through steep valleys and lush forests.

You’ll get a real taste of rural Asturias: expect mostly quiet roads and country tracks with a mix of both paved and unpaved surfaces, so a gravel or sturdy road bike will serve you well. The scenery is spectacular, with panoramic mountain views and the chance to spot grazing livestock along the way!

Amieva, your destination, is known for its wild landscapes and has barely changed over the years—a hidden gem for those who love peace and nature. Celebrate your arrival with a local cider or classic fabada asturiana. This route is a challenge, but the sense of accomplishment and scenery are worth every pedal stroke.
