History and what to see
Leaving Salas, the path climbs along the Nonaya river, through woodland and over old stone bridges; a short detour leads to its waterfall. At the top of the climb the views open up. In Tineo, step into the church of San Pedro, a former Franciscan friary church from the late 13th century.
