Walking between Caldevilla and Villar de Güergu

The turnoff crosses a river; a beautifully restored mill stands on the right. Check its condition when you visit. From the turnoff, the path climbs uphill to the village of Villar de Güergu. It then joins the Gijón–Covadonga route, which is part of the Camín de la Reina. The turnoff is a clear landmark: after crossing the river and passing the mill, the route climbs to Villar de Güergu and finally joins the other path. Check local trail conditions before setting out.

The Camín de la Reina and its history

The Camín de la Reina was an old road used by the Romans. Queen Isabel II had it restored in 1858 on the occasion of her visit to Asturias. Roman use and its later restoration in the 19th century give the route two distinct historical time periods. If you would like to learn about the historical background while walking, this route offers a specific connection to the history of Asturias.

Cycling: Mountain Biking Route and Regional Connection

The Sevares–Caldevilla–Fontecha route is classified as a tourist mountain biking route and offers panoramic views of Mota de Cetín. Surfaces and signage can change, so check them before setting out. Entre Parres y Piloña is a different type of cycling connection: it links several parishes between Parres and Piloña and follows quiet roads. Traffic and road conditions may vary. The two routes differ in the features described: the mountain biking route is notable for its classification and views, while Entre Parres y Piloña links several parishes and follows a particular type of road. This makes it easier to choose between the cycling options according to the type of route that interests you.
