The route starts in the town of Barcia (Asturias), where there is a public car park a few metres from the starting point. From there, the path runs parallel to the river Barcia, crossing the village until it reaches a small bridge, the connection point between the outward and return sections.

The route advances through a leafy forest of chestnut and oak trees, accompanied by the constant murmur of the river, which flows to the walker's left. The riverside vegetation, abundant and covered with moss, together with the shade provided by the native trees, creates a fresh, green and very attractive environment to enjoy at any time of the year.
