Excursion to the Picos de Europa and Potes from Santander
Description
On our van route we will cross rivers, forests, villages and the famous Hermida Gorge until we reach Fuente Dé, where the cable car to the Picos de Europa is located. We will also visit Potes, capital of Liébana and considered one of the most beautiful villages in Spain. Of this village we can highlight its cobbled streets, its bridges and its medieval tower, known as Torre del Infantado.
What we are going to do?
We will drive to Fuente Dé, where we will have some free time to explore the area or take the cable car up to the top station if we wish. The cable car ride will last 4 minutes and will take us to an altitude of 1,823m above sea level. Afterwards we will go to the Monastery of Santo Toribio, one of the four Holy Places of Christianity. We will also take the opportunity to visit the viewpoint of the hermitage of San Miguel. Finally we will arrive at Potes, where we will take a short walk through the village and then we will have some free time for lunch.
