Somiedo Experience

Active Tourism in Somiedo Natural Park, Asturias

“Discover the life of the fauna in total freedom, its native flora and the customs of the people from this land, Somiedo”

Somiedo Experience is an active tourism company in Asturias which will make you enjoy the landscape of the mountains in Somiedo in the most authentic and natural way.

We only guide small size groups (maximum 8 people) and choose the most appropriate paths, based not only on the weather but also in years of experience studying the behaviour of the native fauna in the four different seasons of the year.

We want you to know the fauna and flora of Somiedo, discover the most ancient customs of the people from this land and enjoy an unforgettable walk through our impressive nature.

What is Somiedo Experience?

We are a concept where the imposing nature of Somiedo Natural Park is the protagonist, a vision far from the usual activities of active tourism, a way to combine and enjoy the different elements that this place offers us and, in short, an experience in and with nature.
