A relatively short but interesting route, with some ascents that allow for superb views. Again, there are several beaches along the way to stop for a swim: Santa Marina (in Ribadesella), Vega, Arenal de Morís (somewhat remote), La Espasa and La Isla. In Colunga you might decide to make a small detour to the Jurrasic Museum (MUJA) or the Playa de la Riega, where you can literally retrace the (fossilized ) steps of dinosaurs. The route continues more inland, through a mountainous landscape typical for Asturias, ith apple orchards, meadows and tiny rural hamlets. The day ends in Villaviciosa, the Apple Capital, famous for its cider production.
Challenge: 39 km / 24,4 mi, 800 m ascent
