Jalón – Nature, Trails and History

In the heart of the Fuentes del Narcea, Degaña e Ibias Nature Park, there is a small dairy goat farm in Jalón. The farm associated with Jalón began keeping goats in 2001. For your travel planning, this specific connection to the location can serve as its own culinary focus alongside nature, trails and historical topics.

Nature

La Penona near Jalón occupies part of the southern slope of the Sierra de Caniellas. La Penona near Jalón is considered an area visited by bears and chamois. Wildlife observation was planned for La Penona, with the animals to be watched through telescopes from a sufficiently large distance so as not to disturb them. When organizing the different interests of your travel group, you can present the landscape name, wildlife observation and historical traces as separate topics alongside one another. As an activity type, this activity differs from the two named trails and can be included in your planning as a separate nature focus.

Trails

The Jalón–La Penona trail is listed as being 2.45 km long and recorded in the Fuentes del Narcea, Degaña e Ibias Nature Park. The Jalón–Camino la Corona trail is listed as being 1.28 km long. The two different trail lengths provide a clear point of comparison for planning your day. The destination names help you view the two routes as separate options; you can assess the desired trail length before planning the rest of your excursion. The distance details make the difference between the routes immediately clear and allow you to compare them according to the planned distance.

History

The Castiecho de Jalón, also called Xalón, is one of the Castro settlements listed in the Narcea Valley. It is counted among the pre-Roman hill forts that were abandoned around the time of the Roman conquest or in the immediately following decades. A branch of a historic route led to the Castro de Jalón. For personal travel planning, history can be established as a separate focus alongside nature and trails when different interests come together in a travel group.

Local Flavours

The farm welcomed small tourist groups for a tasting; Cangas wine was served, accompanied by its own cheese. For travel planning, you can place this culinary focus separately from nature, trails and history. Especially when there are several interests, the tasting can be considered as its own thematic point of reference.
