Services

Olloniego is a village in the Nalón valley, the largest river in Asturias. The village has basic services — a bar or two along the main road. The Río Nalón, which you'll cross shortly, was once the lifeblood of the Asturian mining industry, carrying coal down from the mountain valleys to the ports. Today the valley is greener and quieter.

The Camino:

Continue along the main road out of Olloniego, past El Cruce, and over the bridge to El Portazgo. Stay alert for traffic — the road can be busy here.
