Day1 : Travel to Riaño, León Province, Spain

Riaño 
Riaño Lake (Embalse de Riaño) 
León Province, Spain
Trip date: 2020-July-20


We traveled from Madrid to Asturias y Cantabrias for 2 weeks. The first stop was Riaño.

Riaño's lake (Embalse de Riaño) is an artifical lake, a reservoir was formed by contrusting a dam in 1987.



The town we visit today calls New Riaño. Around 1987, many villages were moved to a higher place for the new construction of the new dam. The old Riaño (in totally 9 villages) is abandoned and now is under the water. 



To see:
A small church near the lake (Iglesia de Nuestra Señora del Rosario)


The best bench in Leon (banco más bonito de León)


The memory trail (Paseo del Recuerdo)




Other activities you also can do: go trekking, take a boat, do water sport...etc. 

Since here is only one immtermediate stop for us, we only stay one afternoon and one night. 

Hotel Presa 2 stars:
The room is not very big, but overall it is fine. I booked the room with a seaview, but the window was very samll. 


Parking:
Easy

We bought one bottle of Sidra and Sobao in one small shop.
