Features ed. desnivel 25 rutas mineras por asturias y cantabria
Once again Desnivel offers you the opportunity to take a "tour" through our most recent history and, more specifically, to explore the mining heritage that shaped the landscape and marked the future of the Asturian and Cantabrian people.
Luis Aurelio González has designed 25 itineraries for you that will guide your steps through the remains of the main mines that today formed the Central Asturian Basin and the Picos de Europa. The routes through the Picos, in general, tend to be much more committed, since they are carried out in a high mountain environment and, therefore, require having a good physical shape and previous experience in the mountains. Those that pass through the Central Basin, on the other hand, are usually well marked and conditioned walks, within reach of most.
All the routes are described in detail and accompanied by a rigorous historical study of the mine in question, all illustrated with very interesting old photographs, testimony to some uses and customs that are now lost. In short, a fun and active way of learning about the past, knowing how to see, beyond the rusted iron or ruined huts, the jobs -sometimes cyclopean- and the social conquests of some men and women who shaped the way of being of a town.
