ABOUT HOTEL FUENTES de LUCIA
Nestled in the Quiros valley, Hotel Fuentes de Lucia is surrounded by dramatic peaks, deep gorges and crystal clear rivers, ancient forests—a paradise for anyone who likes the great outdoors.
​
Fuentes de Lucia has 8 lovely bedrooms, all with full bathrooms, a balcony and/or terrace.
There are three buildings on the site. The main house includes the dining room, living room, self-serve bar, and a massage room. A separate building offers a quiet yoga studio. The third building is the hotel.
​
An intricate system of marked footpaths leads you from one small village to the next, up and over mountain passes and through river valleys. Our expert guides are able to take our guests through our magnificent landscape via well-trodden pathways visiting remote villages where life is unchanged, continuing much as it always has.
​
Close by is the Senda del Oso, a 30-kilometer trail from Bárzana de Quirós to Trubia, which runs through these valleys following the track of an old railway line once used for transporting coal and iron ore to the sea.
​
Hotel Fuentes de Lucia is located 5 kilometers from the small lake of Valdemurio. In the next valley over, walk through the mystical canyon of Las Xanas to Pedrobeyo for a hearty lunch of Fabada, a typical Asturian white bean and chorizo stew.
​
Payment Options: Email Lori for payment by check or Lori will send a PayPal invoice if you want to pay using a credit card or via PayPal. (Note: there is a 3% additional charge if PayPal, credit or debit card is used.)
Yoga. Hiking. Eating. Repeat and Relax!
Wake up to the sound of roosters and sun coming up over the mountains. Meander in for breakfast in the dining room--perhaps eggs from the resident chickens, along with fresh-squeezed juices and, of course, coffee with warm milk. Gather with the group in the yoga studio for gentle asana, meditation and relaxation, plus time for self-reflection and fun. During hikes, you may discover goats along the trail, wonder at the ancient chestnut trees, or explore little village with Mario, our wonderful, local guide, who shares delightful stories and vast knowledge. Lunch leisurely in quaint villages or or with a picnic on the trail, always returning to the comfort of the hotel to enjoy delicious Spanish cuisine.
​
