Can I Put Shampoo In My Checked Luggage

Villa Disgrace

An ancient villa on the outskirts of a city, possibly owned by any Indian who returned from America with some fortune to have a house on the outskirts. But the passing of time and neglect do to lose its past splendor, if this will come together the last wild urban development today, make this home surrounded by roads, roads that cross and industry.

R 006: Santa María del Mar - Playon de Bayas (+ Abandoned Mine)

This route takes us along the coast castrillonense from the beach of Santa Maria del Mar to the beach area of \u200b\u200bberries through the small coves and over cliffs that shape the Asturian coast. The route is about 11km of which slightly more than half will be along the coast and back (the path is circular) will be on the inside.

The time will vary depending on stops to rest or observe the landscape, but in two hours or three hours can be done peacefully. There are several areas badly damaged, with missing special shoes (boots), as there trench unfinished works and argayos of various sections.

This area of \u200b\u200bthe coast has its little story, early twentieth century discovered the remains of forts and Roman rooms, different areas have the remains of fortifications and remains of Roman common ware the first and second centuries AD, and some fragments of medieval pottery.











When we get to the observatory and interpretive center will realize that we are abandoned, not the first time, as previously the company's mine Asturiana de Zinc. It was built in the mid 50's to remove stones from the foot of the cliff for the crucibles where melted zinc. Would be operational until 1980.

A few years ago restored into an area of \u200b\u200bobservation of nature and wildlife of the area, and to interpret the area with different levels and explanatory panels. But the end is the one shown in the photos.






350 meters the coast is the Isle of Deva, the largest island of the Asturian coast, with dimensions of 550 m x 300 m y una altura de 89 metros en su punto más alto se convierte en un hábitat perfecto para las gaviotas, dispone de una amplia colonia (de 500 parejas). El cormorán y la lagartija roquera también cohabitan en la isla.

El nombre de Deva podría proceder de los antiguos celtas, la isla podría ser un símbolo religioso, el panteón donde habitaban las divinidades femeninas relacionadas con el culto al Agua.
 Playón de Bayas.

Para volver iremos hacia el pueblo de El Cueto y desde alli tomaremos la ruta de las Iglesias que nos llevara atraves del Bosque Road to Naveces.

After advancing along the paths of cattle towards the Castro began his rise, soon we will see remnants of the Civil War some wells where artillery batteries were hidden behind the fort and shot in punishing parable of fortified positions held by the enemy.


After reaching the top, took the opportunity to eat a Hornazo (bread stuffed with chorizo \u200b\u200band cheese, typical of the area) and we turned to our steps. But instead of going down the track that leads to the village of Allen del Hoyo, continue along a forest track towards Montejo de Bricia.
