Salmon Fair

The Salmon Fair is an ideal occasion to get to know Corniana/Cornellana and all the beauties of its surroundings, both in terms of nature and culture. The month of April, when the fishing season opens, is the perfect time for this unique event, dedicated exclusively to salmon and its habitat.

Moreover, the fair features the excitement of the Campanu de Asturias auction (the first salmon of the season), which becomes a social, sporting, and cultural event in this land.

The life of the salmon and its environment are the central focus of a fair where outdoor activities, mainly fishing and hunting, as well as other adventure tourism activities, are a real attraction for locals and visitors alike.

Parallel to the fair, activities related to the attractions of Cornellana and the Narcea River are scheduled, such as a guided salmon route or visits to the impressive Monastery of San Salvador de Cornellana, one of the most significant landmarks on the Camino de Santiago.
