Cangas de Onís: Sella River Canoeing Adventure

1. Cangas de Onís: Sella River Canoeing Adventure

Start your Sella River canoeing adventure on a 500-meter practice stretch before getting to the good stuff in Arriondas, the most heart-pumping fun you’ll find along this river. Continue on for another 8 kilometers to Toraño or the extra 15 kilometers to Llovio, depending on what option you’ve selected and how much of the beautiful landscape you want to experience. During the summer, these sections don’t have as many rapids or canoe traffic. If you’re with family, the first section from Las Rozas to Arriondas, which lasts about 1 to 2 hours, might be the perfect stretch for you during the summer months. During the spring, this stretch is more for those seeking adventure.

Recommendable !! Friendly, fast and attentive. We arrived at the last stop of the sella, and they picked us up practically as soon as we arrived, because each one has a rhythm and you call them to come for you. They give you your canoe, vest, paddle, a drum to store your belongings, and they give you a brief explanation of its use and the route.
