Description

Meet the Cantabrian brown bears with this excursion through the mountains of Asturias from Avilés. You'll spend a day in full contact with nature while a guide shows you the peculiarities of this species.

Description

At the indicated time, we'll pick you up at the central station of Avilés and travel to the mountains of Asturias in search of one of the most precious species in the region, the Cantabrian brown bear.

From the moment we leave Avilés, we'll begin to learn all about the characteristics of this protected species thanks to the knowledge of the guide, who'll tell us everything about the Cantabrian brown bear, one of the smallest brown bear subspecies in the world.

We'll explore the mountains of Somiedo in search of the best places to see these magnificent animals. Besides bears, if we're lucky, we'll be able to see other species, such as wild boars, deer or chamois. It'll be fascinating!

After this adventure through Asturian nature, we'll return to the starting point in Avilés 8 hours after initial pickup.

Solo por conocer la imponente naturaleza de esta zona de España ya merece la pena y si además puedes observar osos en libertad, te sientes afortunado. El guía, un tipo excelente. El mundo es un pañuelo..
