Restrictions?

This is a protected area with restrictions on how different zones are used. More information can be found at the visitor centre in Campo de Caso. Be aware that camping is not allowed, do not light fires other than in areas prepared for them, and that away from the recognised routes you are supposed to get permission to enter a restricted zone or "Zona de Uso Restringido".

But to obtain this permission involves an impractical process of sending a fax (yes a fax!) to the Director's office in Oviedo two weeks in advance with lots of details, ask at the visitor centre. However many listed routes are poorly marked, and conflicting advice is published! So use your discretion. See the visitor's ecological code, in Spanish only.

That's enough of the disclaimers and warnings, enjoy this wonderful area.
