Discover Sales: Trails, Cider and History

The “Senda de Sales” health trail follows the Colunga–Sales–Solriveru–Colunga circular route. Along the Senda de Sales, the paths lead through apple orchards and meadows and offer beautiful views of the Sierra del Sueve. Those who prefer to understand a landscape through specific sections of a trail can consider the route of the circular walk and the landscape features mentioned as two separate points of reference alongside one another.

When comparing holiday apartments in Sales, you can check the travel period, room category and cancellation conditions side by side on the respective listing pages. These three details help align the booking decision with your own dates and planning considerations, while the choice of location remains independent of individual accommodation features.

Cider and local production

The artisan cider house “Sidra Crespo” is located in Sales. At Sidra Crespo, all the cider is made by hand from Asturian apples and without any additives whatsoever. Sidra Crespo offers guided tours for individuals, groups and agencies. For visitors who assign different importance to regional production and a guided tour, these represent two clearly separate perspectives.

Culture and history

Sales is home to the parish church Iglesia parroquial de San Pedro. The parish church of San Pedro de Sales dates back to a foundation in the 18th century. A report from the end of the 19th century mentioned a wooden cross covered with gilded copper in the parish church of San Pedro de Sales. For 26 to 29 June 2026, the traditional Fiestas de San Pedro in Sales were announced, featuring traditional activities, gastronomic offerings, music and religious events.

For a trip involving different interests, the topics mentioned can be viewed as different formats: a circular walk, a guided tour, a religious building and historic sites. This does not imply a fixed order; you can set the priorities yourself.

The three topics focus on different aspects: outdoor activity, insight into artisan production and historical evidence. For personal day planning, you can therefore first decide whether a trail, an appointment involving guided interpretation or a visit to historic sites should be the main focus. The information about individuals, groups and agencies at Sidra Crespo offers different organisational frameworks, without implying a fixed order. This keeps the choice of experiences open and allows it to be aligned with your own interests.

Geographical context

The Camino de la Costa runs through Colunga; it is increasingly frequented and was recently declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The former Republican airfield of Colunga lies next to the village of Sales. Around 80 % of the runway, the former administrative offices, workshops and accommodation for personnel, as well as a concrete platform presumably intended for anti-aircraft guns, have been preserved. Sales is also home to a structure that was incorrectly called the “Puente Romano del Charcón”; it crossed the Llobones or Sales River.
