Leaving Villar de las Traviesas in the direction of Toreno, we take a street that deviates to the left. This road descends to the bottom of the valley, where it crosses the course of the Velasco River. Here, we continue along the left bank, in a section that ends at a mining track. At this point, the landscape changes and the view opens to a canyon of rock walls and beautiful oaks. Following the mining track, we go down to the Bembibre and Toreno road.
