Cycling

The route to the Mirador de Següencu is a mountain-bike loop starting and ending in Cangas de Onís. Its fixed course, with the same starting and ending point, distinguishes this cycling route from the GR105, which passes through Següencu.

Nature

The Mirador de Següencu offers views of the Sella and Güeña valleys, the Sueve and the western massif of the Picos de Europa. The Mirador del Fitu is located near Següencu as a viewpoint. Canto Cabronero is a mountain in the wider regional surroundings of Següencu. Cuevas de Tito Bustillo is a cave in the wider regional surroundings of Següencu; Tito Bustillo is also a cave there.

Hiking

The GR105 route reaches a sign indicating entry into Picos de Europa National Park. The different activity types create a clear basis for comparing cycling and hiking options, while viewpoints and mountain references form a distinct thematic focus. In a direct comparison, the GR105 focuses on crossing Següencu with the marked transition to the national park. The loop to the Mirador de Següencu, on the other hand, remains recognisable as a separate cycling route because it starts and ends in Cangas de Onís. Both references therefore lead to different thematic interpretations of the landscape.

Culture

La Porra de Socastiello, also known as Porra de la Portiella, is a fortification located in Següencu. It is situated on the Llanu del Picu, on a rounded limestone elevation in the Sierra de Brenga at an altitude of 504 m. The oval structure measures 25 × 10 m and features a 5 m-wide central crown, as well as construction remains and collapsed material that may indicate a tower-like structure.

La Porra de Socastiello has been associated with control of the livestock route from Següencu.

The Museo de Covadonga is a museum in the immediate surroundings of Següencu. The Centro de Arte Rupestre de Tito Bustillo, a museum, is located in the wider regional surroundings. The Iglesia de Santa Cruz and the Santuario de Covadonga are churches in the immediate surroundings of Següencu.
