  • Mountain site in a UNESCO World Network Biosphere Reserve
  • Surrounded by hiking and mountain biking trails
  • Quiet site by the Cuiña river
A lovely location indeed has Camping Ancares, a green and tree-filled place set among a UNESCO World Network Biosphere Reserve, and on the banks of the Cuiña river a short amble from the tiny village of Pereda de Ancares. You’d do well to pitch up here if you're looking a serene Spanish getaway: this spectacularly scenic mountain site is surrounded by walnut groves and prettily presided over by the mountains of Serra dos Ancares, offering up peaceful outdoorsy days among foothills and forests. Exploring hiking routes, nature trails and watching out for wildlife on and around the wooded hillsides are the main draws of the region, along with pedalling along the mountain bike trails around the site. Exploring local walking paths and looking out for wildlife are the main attractions of the area, as well as cycling on the cycle paths that run directly from the campsite. It's also not unusual for guests to be visited by wild creatures on site from time to time… For refreshing swims, you'll be just a few steps away from a leisure centre with a variety of sports and a swimming pool. The village is particularly well preserved and is home to several prehistoric constructions called pallozas, a type of dwelling once typical of the region.

Local attractions

The area's biosphere reserve provides many an option for outdoorsy days, with a tiptop pick for the region being hikes along routes around the surrounding walnut-wooded foothills. Ambling around nature trails and keeping peepers peeled for wildlife is the next: look out for region’s wild grouse (aka urogallo). Mountain biking is also popular around here: several lengthy trails lie around the local village for adrenalised pedals, such as Los Ancares Leoneses, Circular Desde Candín and Desafío Ancares Copa Límite Bierzo; ask the site’s friendly owners for details of where you can join the routes. After all that hiking and mountain biking, you’ll likely need to cool off; handily, a leisure centre is nearby with a roomy outdoor pool for cooling dips, or if instead you’re feeling active, its outdoor sports area is where you can expend extra energy. Once ready to head back to base, it’s well worth having a wander around the local village to spy its pristinely preserved ancient dwellings, namely thatched spherical pallozas, to get a feel for the region’s culture and heritage.
