Somiedo Experience
An active-tourism company in the Somiedo Natural Park dedicated to wildlife watching. It sets out from Pola de Somiedo with small groups, of two to eight people, and chooses the area each day according to the weather and the behaviour of the animals.
What it does
Its main activity is an attempt to spot the Cantabrian brown bear: about four hours with an interpretive walk and a wait with telescopes and binoculars, first thing in the morning or at dusk. It also runs hiking routes of about six hours, outings to see wolves, reptiles and amphibians, and a guided bivouac to sleep under the stars in the park.
How to book
