The route starts at the Oviedo/Uviéu railway station, from where we will follow the track to cross the city and reach the start of the Fuso greenway in the Parque de Invierno. It is practically flat and well asphalted. At different points there are areas to eat or rest.

During the first kilometre of the trail, we pass several times under the motorway. At the beginning you can already see different species of trees with small birdhouses. We pass next to the old La Manjoya station, now the Aula de La Naturaleza, where we can see the Mostayal peak in the background, and cross the motorway over a wooden bridge. In one kilometre, we cross the Ayones-Llagú road.

At different points there are several picnic areas. Along the way, we cross several of the old tunnels through which the train used to pass, and we walk parallel to the course of the river Gafo, surrounded by lush vegetation, hazelnut, carob, birch and holm oak trees.

When we reach kilometre 7, we come to the Veneros tunnel, the longest, 260 metres long. We will soon see spectacular views of the Nalón, dotted with holm oak groves on the limestone. We cross the hundred-year-old iron bridge to the village of Fuso, where the greenway ends. From here we can see Peña Avis.

We follow the track to Caces, always accompanied by the forest and the Nalón river, and from there to Trubia, where our route ends.

The return journey can be made by train, from Trubia station to Oviedo/Uviéu, an option to take into account if we go with "the little ones".

It is possible to return from Trubia train station.
