Info
Corvera is internationally known, especially in the world of sport, for the Trasona Reservoir and its Canoeing and Rowing Sports Technification Centre. In this unique and beautiful spot, half the world's sporting achievements and medals have been sealed in different competitions and championships, mainly linked to the sports of canoeing and rowing. Trasona/Tresona is a symbol of the great sporting tradition of this municipality, very close to the coast, which delights the visitor with places such as the Senda del Agua, ideal for fans of 'green' trekking and cycle tourism, or the Furta Wetland. In addition, those who enjoy religious art should not miss the church of Santa María de Solís, of pre-Romanesque origin and therefore very Asturian.
Corvera therefore provides a healthy experience for those who come to this part of Asturias, which can be rounded off with the relaxation of a spa session or a round of golf in one of the council's hotel complexes, or by sampling some Asturian cuisine.
The council also has the PACO (Parque Acuático de Corvera), the only water park in Asturias, a family leisure area with swimming pools, water slides, rest areas, cafeteria and beach bar.
