This route is part of a 10 day motorcycle vacation. There are no scheduled stops for refueling, eating or drinking. When the opportunity arises, stop at one of the points indicated by a POI. Along the way there are several small villages with restaurants or cafes.
Hotels, sights and recommended points to stop to enjoy the view are also marked with a POI.
Day 8 we drive from Fuente Dé to the north coast towards Gijon. The first part we drive on the N-621, a road through a beautiful varied landscape with many curves. We drive through beautiful nature parks with beautiful winding roads with an occasional tunnel hewn from the rocks or a beautiful azure reservoir.
