Dairy with its own goats · 2 h · From €20 · Workshop to make your own fresh cheese and a Picón tasting · Minimum 4 people

South of Llanes, the Sierra del Cuera separates the coast from the Picos. At its foot works a family of cheesemakers from Sotres and Tresviso, the blue-cheese area: the grandson, Aurelio, and his wife represent the fourth generation, with a modern dairy and their own goats, and they still make Picón cheese as their main product. NaturAsturias organises the visit, and it is the closest you will get to how an Asturian cheese is made without going up the mountain.
What you do
A guide takes you round the whole dairy: the barn and the goats, the production room and the curing and packing area. Then there is a workshop in which you make your own fresh cheese, and at the end, a tasting of the house's cheeses. It takes about two hours.
Three ways to get there
The visit alone, with workshop and tasting, costs €20 per person. You can add a hiking route through the surroundings, listed as a Site of Community Importance in the Natura 2000 network, for €40 and between three and a half and four hours; or go by e-bike from Celorio along the coast and return by vehicle, for €70 and about five hours. The private visit costs €40 per person, from two. All require a minimum of four people; if you are fewer, ask. The listing does not give the dairy's exact address: they confirm it when you book.
Who it is for
The visit and the hiking option suit any age and level; minors accompanied or authorised. For the bike option, check if anyone is shorter than 1.55 m. If you are after the cave-ripened Cabrales, see the visit to a Cabrales dairy, about 40 minutes away.
