Info

If one had to think of a water paradise, that would be Illano, which holds the curious distinction of having the first waterfall on the Navia River Kilowatt Route, thanks to the Doiras waterfall and reservoir, built in the 1930s. Illano has a completely unspoilt landscape, without any environmental degradation, a landscape full of birches, oaks, cork oaks and hazelnut trees. Valleys, forests and rivers that have witnessed the emergence of the Castro culture.

Its capital, Eilao, is a peaceful village, with the typical black slate shining on its roofs and with unique views over the powerful flow of the river Navia, and in autumn and winter it is a spectacle from Eilao to observe Santesteba, declared an Asset of Cultural Interest, with the first snow...

A paradise of tranquillity, suitable for relaxing and enjoying nature in its primitive state. This is Illano.
