Route Description
The Route of the Brañas de Saliencia (PR.AS-12) is a journey to the heart of the cowboy culture. The trail starts from Arbeyales and follows the upward course of the river, giving us the constant sound of water and numerous waterfalls.
Along the way, we will visit groups of teito (vegetable roof) cabins such as the Braña de Ordiales and the Mortera de Saliencia, living examples of human adaptation to the environment. The route ends in the town of Saliencia, completing a journey that combines nature and ethnographic heritage.
