We invite you to the Principality of Asturias—a region known as the “Green Paradise” of northern Spain. Here, along the Cantabrian coast, you will discover breathtaking landscapes, a rich cultural heritage, and a unique gastronomy.
Oviedo
We begin our journey in the region’s capital, Oviedo—a city with a rich history and one of the most beautiful and culturally significant corners of Asturias.
Founded in the 8th century, Oviedo preserves a wealth of historical architectural monuments. Highlights include the Oviedo Cathedral, one of Spain’s greatest examples of Gothic architecture, as well as the churches of Santa María del Naranco and San Julián de los Prados, both UNESCO World Heritage sites.
The city’s streets are filled with the charm of old Spain: narrow lanes, picturesque squares, cozy cafés, and restaurants where you can taste traditional dishes such as Fabada Asturiana (Asturian bean stew) or the region’s famous cider.
Strolling through Oviedo is like traveling through time, where every corner is steeped in history, and the views of the surrounding landscapes inspire admiration for both nature and human culture.
Gijón
Next, we head to Gijón, a city with roots stretching far back into history, where its rich heritage is palpable in every street.
Founded as early as the 5th century BCE, Gijón bears traces of many cultures—from Roman and medieval influences to more modern architectural masterpieces.
Equally appealing to visitors is the city’s gastronomic scene. Gijón is renowned for its seafood, particularly fresh fish caught straight from the nearby coast.
Every corner of the city exudes the magic of nature, history, and culture. With its unique atmosphere and welcoming locals, Gijón promises an unforgettable experience.
Covadonga
Covadonga is one of the most significant sites in Spanish history. This picturesque village in Asturias is not just a scenic destination—it is where the decisive Battle of Covadonga took place in 722, marking the beginning of the Reconquista, the centuries-long struggle of the Christians to reclaim the Iberian Peninsula from Moorish rule. The Christian forces were led by King Pelayo, making Covadonga a symbol of Christian resurgence and the start of a process that culminated in 1492 with the expulsion of the Moors.
The main attraction is the Sanctuary of the Virgin of Covadonga, nestled inside a cave.
A little above the sanctuary lie two stunning mountain lakes: Enol and Ercina, offering breathtaking natural scenery.
Asturian gastronomy is a story in itself. The region is famous for its cider and cheese. Cider is a regional symbol, and its production is almost ritualized. Traditionally, it is served with fabada, a hearty stew of beans, smoked pork belly, blood sausages, and spicy pork.
Asturias is also renowned for its blue cheese, Cabrales, made from a blend of cow, goat, and sheep milk. Aged in the caves of the Picos de Europa, Cabrales develops a distinctive sharp flavor and characteristic aroma, making it a true pride of the region.
It’s impossible to describe all the wonders we’re ready to show you, but one thing is certain: this journey will become one of the most exciting and unforgettable experiences of your life. We will reveal Asturias from its very best side—offering you moments filled with enchanting landscapes, historical discoveries, and culinary delights.
Come with us, and Asturias will leave an everlasting mark on your heart!
