Villar de Vildas - Braña la Pornacal
La PornacalThe La Pornacal brag, located in the Valley of the Pégueña (Asturias), is the largest and best preserved of the brows of the Natural Park of Souro, where the ancient traditions of the winged cowboys live in a framework of incomparable beauty. The mantle of La Pornacal is made up of 32 teitas or cabins and is located on the right bank of the birth of the river Pégueña, at a small summit at 1170 m of altitude, dominating the meadows of the Requexada. Each of these cabins still retains the original division. The teites are stone constructions with broom cover, a wild bush known scientifically under the name of Cytisus scoparius, and in Souro is called "xiniesta." These covers need to be changed every 15 years. |
The RequexadeLarge meadows, where it is possible to observe deer or reels. |
The route leaves the village of Villar de Vildas where we take a concrete track that starts in a south direction. Shortly after leaving the village, the track crosses the river on the Cotado bridge, continuing, on the rise and on the left bank of the Pégueña channel, to La Pornacal.
