Water House

The Water Park

If Redes is known as “the water park” it is for a reason. The Nalón River rises here and runs through the park, feeding vital reservoirs for Asturias. The Casa del Agua, located in Rioseco (capital of Sobrescobio), is a modern facility dedicated to explaining this vital relationship.

A River Tour

The visit simulates the water cycle and the path of a river from its source in the peaks to its mouth, focusing on the context of Alto Nalón:

1. The Water Cycle: Interactive explanations about basic hydrology, perfect for children.
2. Aquatic Ecosystems: You will get to know the fauna that inhabits the rivers of Redes, from trout and salmon to the elusive otter and the Iberian desman.
3. Uses of Water: How man has taken advantage of the power of water throughout history (mills, hydroelectric plants).

Environment

Rioseco is a charming town. After visiting the Casa del Agua, you can take a walk along the shore of the Rioseco reservoir, where there is a very accessible bird observatory.
