Hiking, history, and luxury!

felixaL3194HC, Jun 2024

We saved this experience for our last full day in Asturias after several days of enjoying company with family and friends. This trip was just for the two of us, an opportunity to relax ourselves as much as possible before the long trip home, and it did not disappoint! First and foremost, our guide, Debora, was a delight. She’s friendly, accommodating, outgoing and very knowledgable about the trail and the surrounding country leading from the Parque Invierno to Las Caldas, the posh 18th Century Spa. We thoroughly enjoyed chatting with and getting to know her through the morning and afternoon and we kept her contact information at the end of the day to possibly reconnect with her when we return to Spain in the future. Now, please note for those who don’t hike often. This was a three-hour walk. We left Parque Invierno at 9:30am and arrived at the doors of the spa just before 12:30pm. If you’re not used to walking long distances, you may want to limber up and do a little work on your fitness before making your reservation — the entire trail is paved and there’s no cross-country hiking, but it might still be a challenge, especially if your feet aren’t used to walking for that long! Now, once you get to Las Caldas, the luxury can begin. The staff is friendly, the facilities are marvelous and state-of-the-art while still respectful of the site’s long history. The steam room-cold bath-sauna experience was probably my favorite part, but the heated pools and the terrace for lounging and enjoying the view are also extraordinary. You’ll get two hours to enjoy it all — plenty of time. All in all, we loved our time on this experience. Highly recommend!

Excellent

Francinerace7, Jun 2022

This activity was a nice surprise, Are guide Debora was very knowledgeable, and responsive to are needs. The walk was a nice beginning to a small village with this beautiful spa. To complete the day, Debora organized a succulent traditionnal dîner at a local restaurant. My friend Micheline and i, highly recommend this tour. It will bring you closer to nature, learn the history of the region, and finish with à nice relaxing moment. ????

Oviedo Hidden Gem

Bethany M, Jun 2022

Oviedo is such a gorgeous city. This walking tour lets you see the beauty of the city while experiencing nature. The final destination of the 18th century spa completes the day perfectly. The spa is like nothing I've ever experienced! Definitely a hidden gem. Debora is knowledgeable and kind. This is a must see if traveling to Oviedo!
