Senda del Oso

The walk of the bear. 31 km of cycle or hiking track allong a disused mining train track. The main route, and the one we cycled, from Entrago, where we stayed at the aire, to Tuñon with a separate branch up to Ricabo joining at Caranga de Abajo. The aire is right on the end of thr route with a rudimentary service point but there are public toilets and a shower for €2. The cycle trip was excellent, some spectacular views and may tunnels, some lit, which was very welcome. From Entrago the 20 km to Tuñon is all downhill, but of course the return is all up hill. The gradient is not too steep, but peddaling continuously for 20 km is pretty monotonous. About half way there is some substantial fences and a viewing point, this is the bear enclosure. I only got a photo of a bears behind on the way down but a better view on the way back.
