ASTURIAS PARAISO NATURAL

By bike, with a surfboard, or simply on foot – Asturias is an invitation to experience nature in all its forms.
With over 200 wild beaches, a deep blue sea, majestic mountains just a few kilometers from the coast, lush green valleys, and historic cities, this region is just the beginning of a journey that awakens all five senses.

“Asturias is honest, authentic, respectful of both past and present – bold, yet welcoming.”

Nature is the true soul of Asturias, and it’s easy to see why locals take such pride in it. Dense, mysterious forests, trails that wind through vibrant green landscapes, dramatic cliffs that plunge into the ocean, and beaches still untouched by mass tourism paint the perfect picture of raw, unspoiled beauty.
The rivers run so clean they’re still home to wild salmon, and the towering Picos de Europa mountains attract hikers and climbers from all over the world.

But Asturias isn’t just a place to admire: it’s a place to live.
This is a land for active travelers, for those who don’t just want to watch nature, but to move with it, explore it, breathe it in.

The mountain roads challenge even the most experienced cyclists, offering panoramic routes for road bikers, technical trails for MTB enthusiasts, and wild backroads that seem made for gravel riding.

Along the jagged coastline, the waves of the Cantabrian Sea provide ideal conditions for surf and bodyboarding all year round. From exposed beaches with powerful swells for seasoned riders to more sheltered spots perfect for beginners, there’s almost always a wave working somewhere thanks to the varied orientations and seabeds.
And in winter, the mountains transform into a snowy playground, perfect for alpine skiing and splitboarding.

Here, adventure has no season: in Asturias, every day is an invitation to get outside, move your body, and feel truly alive.
