Teverga – Senda del Oso, Culture and Mountain Landscapes

Teverga can be explored particularly vividly through the parish of La Plaza: The Senda del Oso crosses La Plaza and runs through a landscape of mountains and gorges. Nature and architectural heritage stand side by side here, represented by specific places and routes.

Nature and Routes

The Río Valdecarzana also flows through La Plaza. On the ten-kilometre Caranga–Entragu section, the Senda del Oso is a very easy, linear route for gravel and mountain bikes. The Caranga–Cueva Huerta section follows the former 19th-century mining railway line and passes through small tunnels and along retaining walls. The Peña Gradura climbing area is located near Entrago in the parish of La Plaza. On the Caranga–Entragu section, the Senda del Oso lists the Iglesia de San Pedro in La Plaza as a point of interest.

For day planning, you can weigh length, route type, historical character and activity type separately. Comparing the cycle route, railway line, climbing area and river opens up different thematic perspectives. The linear cycle route and the historic railway line place different emphasis than considering the river course and buildings; this allows you to organise nature, activity and history separately in your own plans.

Culture

The Colegiata de San Pedro is located at AS-265, 33111 La Plaza and was built between 1069 and 1076. The sacristy museum of the Colegiata displays the mummified bodies of the Marquis of Valdecarzana and his son Pedro de Miranda.

The Palacio de los Marqueses de Valdecarzana is located in the parish of La Plaza and is arranged around a central courtyard with a portico resting on pillars and a wooden corridor.

The village of Entrago in the parish of La Plaza is home to the Palacio de los Condes de Agüera, an 18th-century palace built over an older fortress.

When making your cultural selection, you can distinguish between religious architecture, museum content and palace architecture. The periods and architectural forms mentioned place different emphasis on each aspect.
