This stage descends from the Pajares port to the Asturian valleys. The route is a spectacular descent through a landscape of great beauty. It's a day to enjoy nature and look forward to arriving at one of the cradles of pre-Romanesque Asturian. Arrival in Pola de Lena, a village with a rich heritage, is a monumental end to the stage. It's a day that requires good physical effort, but rewards with unforgettable landscapes.
