Take left from the fountain of Posada (510m), over the first bridge,
and branch off right uphill on a concrete lane. Continue all the time
uphill along this lane till you reach a T-junction (3min) (535 m), where
you turn left. Immediately you pass a fountain. Ignore an asphalt road
branching off right, but when the concrete road forks (5min) (560 m), go
up right.
Keep on the ascending concrete road, which turns into a
track after
you have passed the uppermost house of the village. In front of you
rises the eastern massif of
Picos de Europa and
the hills of Parbolín. Higher up, you see
Lon down in the valley.
When the track forks (38min) (780 m), go left. On your right you find
a fountain.
After crossing a fence made of ropes (47min) (855 m) you encounter a
cowshed (51min) (870 m), and fork off left over a fence. The track
descends gently to a swift brook
of Buron (1h) (845 m), which you cross along
stones. Soon after that you fork off right uphill.
You encounter one more fence (1h05min) (880 m) and follow a sign for
PR-PNPE-27 straight ahead to the
signposts (1h08min) (905 m). Take the
track to the right towards the "Alto de las Canal de Las Arredondas",
but walk along it only less than a 100 meters till you find a narrow
path leading to the right
(1h12min) (900 m). This path takes you across
a brook (1h12min) (900 m), to a small grassy clearing (845 m), which you
cross, and descend then to another
brook (1h15min) (900 m). After
crossing this brook, be careful not to take the path running at the same
level, but instead to take the very narrow
path climbing left uphill. If
you take the wrong path, you return soon to the familiar track.
After some 20 meters the path becomes wider and takes you through an
old oak forest up the slope covered with fern. From the forest you
emerge on a grassy slope, where the path becomes unclear. Continue
uphill towards the
rockwall. By a waterfall the path becomes clearer
(1h40min) (1010 m) and leads to a grassy clearing (1h45min) (1010 m),
where you find a track bending right towards a
cottage that you see
further down.
When the track lined by old oaks forks
(1h56min) (870 m), go left.
After a gate (2h) (840 m), the track bends right. Be careful, not to
continue from the bend straight ahead through a gate. Keep all the time
on the track that leads down, without paying attention to side tracks.
After reaching Lon (2h31min) (575 m), go right at the fork and descend
to the familiar concrete road, which leads back to the beginning of the
route (2h40min).
