Village of Cordiñanes de Valdeón

Cordiñanes is located between the towns of Posada de Valdeón and Cain. From this town you can visit the Mirador del Tombo, the Via Ferrata de Valdeón or the recently declared World Heritage Forest of Asotín.

The Village

Taking advantage of the natural waterfall of the Cares River, the power station that supplied electricity to the other villages of the Valley was installed in this locality, except for Cain who had his own switchboard for self-supply. The old communal mill, recently restored, is a must visit when passing through this town.

The ethnographic heritage of this town is very broad and interesting and, therefore, it is essential to contemplate the 6 hórreos that remain haughty and vigilant, mute witnesses of a very prosperous agricultural and livestock past. Do not miss to visit the Mirador del Tombo, very close to Cordiñanes, from where you get an incomparable panoramic of both mountain massifs, detailed in a useful map in relief
