ASCENT TO THE VIRGIN OF PEÑAFURADA

We start the route in Posada de Omaña, being a route for both pedestrians and cyclists, following a forest track where we can find some ancient remains of Roman canals that supplied water to aquifer farms.

The route does not get lost as it is always following the same forest track. The hermitage of the Virgen de la Casa or Nuestra Señora de Peña Furada (Our Lady of Peña Furada), which we reach, brings together every 15th August the neighbours of the various adjoining municipalities such as Posada de Omaña, Vegapujín and Torrecillo, as well as those of the adjoining valley of Tremor.
