Municipality of Posada de Valdeón
The municipality of Posada de Valdeón or Valdeón Valley is located in the northeast of the province of León, in the Cantabrian Mountains and within the territory of the Picos de Europa National Park.
Crossed from south to north by the Cares River, the municipality of Posada de Valdeón is a beautiful high mountain valley nestled between the western and central massifs of the Picos de Europa National Park.
That is why Valdeón is a municipality marked by a rugged and wild orography, full of beautiful landscapes and in whose territory its inhabitants have been able to establish a close relationship with the mountain, living in balance with its nature and maintaining to this day a singular use of resources as well as particular uses, customs and traditions.
A relationship with the territory that although modernized and now expressed in other uses still survives, because the mountain remains the element of life that marks the present of the neighbors of the Valley, and sure that also the future, from a life approach now more linked to tourism, but always without forgetting the history that has led us to today.
