Ponga, whose territory has been declared a Natural Park and Biosphere Reserve , is a paradise for active tourism. In addition to the immense possibilities for hiking, in places as emblematic from the point of view of the rich woodland as the dense beech forest of Peloño, there is also the possibility of enjoying white water rafting and canyoning, the latter in the canyons of Vibuli and Carangres. Ponga therefore offers all versions of water: high mountain rivers, such as the Ponga and the bordering Sella, waterfalls, canyons and also high quality thermal waters in the Mestas Spa. To top it all off, there is a public swimming pool with incredible views of the Tiatordos and the Ponga mountain range.

Its orography, steep and abrupt, is also ideal for cycling enthusiasts, who can carry out activities with hybrid bicycles. If what we prefer is art, heritage and ethnography, there is always the option of visiting the Ecomuseum of Beleño dedicated to wood and located in the capital San Xuan/SanJuan de Beleño, going to the hermitages of Ventaniella or Arcenorio, the palace of Sobrefoz, the Señoriu de Cazu or the Villages of Tarañes or Viegu...and thus have a complete vision of what Ponga contributes to the landscape, culture and customs in Asturias.
