Cycling and hiking routes

The BTT-MI-2 Circuito Mayáu Porrín also passes through Santu Miano. In the tenth section of this Circuito, the route runs from El Cau along a completely flat regional road to the Alto de Santu Miano. The section links a clearly named starting point, a numbered part of the Circuito and a specific road route.

The BTT-MI-6 Circuito Monte Teyerona route uses the provincial road connecting Mieres with Sama via the Alto de Santo Emiliano. Compared with the BTT-MI-2, the focus here is on the connection between Mieres, the Alto de Santo Emiliano and Sama.

The PR-AS-44 Vuelta a Langreo passes over the Alto de Santo Emiliano. It is a circular hiking route divided into two sections. Its circular form and division into sections give the route a different structure from the GR-208 stage and the mountain biking routes. For your planning, you can compare the names, routes, forms and structures of the routes mentioned side by side and consider cycling and hiking routes as different topics. The information can be compared directly.

Landscape

La Curuxa Rural is located in the Paisaje Protegido de las Cuencas Mineras. In the wider regional surroundings of Santo Emiliano, there are also Peña Mea, a summit, and Gamoniteiru, a mountain. The two landscape destinations mentioned already differ in their designation as a summit and a mountain, respectively.

When choosing a holiday apartment for Santu Miano, travel dates, the desired room category and cancellation conditions can structure the comparison. This keeps the accommodation details separate from the cycling routes, museums and landscape destinations described, while making your personal travel-planning priorities visible.

In addition to the museums, there are two destination types with different designations in the regional surroundings: a zoo and a garden.
