This modern mountain refuge is located in the foothills of the Picos de Europa and looking out at the fertile Liebana valley. It is surrounded by woodlands and hillsides in a region of small hamlets.

The building is at the bottom of the cable car which travels up to the Aliva viewpoint. Look down into the valley and see the Parador in the middle.
Parador de Fuente De
The classical mountain style decoration of warm wood and leather furniture recreate the so appreciated warmth of home.

Taste the traditional Cantabrian cuisine in the hotel restaurant such as:
"Cocido lebaniego" which is a local stew of the Liebana valley;
"Ensalada de gallo de corral" which is a chicken salad made with a free range cockerel;
"Solomillo al queso de Tresviso", a sirloin steak with Tresviso cheese;
"Lomos de venado con salsa de arándanos" being venison with blueberry sauce;


The restaurant has a special gluten free menu,.

If you want to make a cultural visit to the Cantabrian villages of this region, start off in the monastery of Santo Toribio de Liebana, followed by the church of Santa Maria and to the Infantado Tower in Potes.

Other interesting religious buildings are the monastery of Piasca and the pre-Roman church of Lebena.

In Autumn you will be able to attend the festivals of Potes, the Cross, the Cattle fair, or the Orujo (liqueur) Fair.

On July the 2nd, you have La Santuca and you can see the pilgrimage there.

Go walking, take a mountain bike, horse, 4 wheel drive vehicle or even go hang gliding to explore and enjoy the Picos de Europa (”Peaks of Europe”) mountains.

We recommend you to follow by foot the Cares route, going from Poncebos to Cain or take the cable car up to the Aliva viewpoint where you can enjoy an indescribable view of the Peaks Parador de Fuente De.

A warning on the hiking by a previous guest:-
"There are poles behind door to room. If you are going to the top in the cable car TAKE them. Also water, snack, etc. We ended up walking from the top to Espinima — 6 hours with none of these. We did not realize how long or dangerous the last part was — 90 degrees down and gravel paths. I had a bad fall and there was no one out there to help had we needed it. Walk to the Refugio and back — a better bet. You’d think we would have known better but the beautiful day and fabulous surroundings tricked us."

This Parador has fifty two twin bedded rooms, eighteen rooms with a double bed, six single rooms and one easy access room.

All the rooms have a private bathroom, a telephone, TV canal plus, safe and mini bar.

Stayed 2 nights. Fabulous view of the mountains from our balcony. Very clean and comfortable room. Excellent breakfast that offers a wide variety of dairy, egg, meat, and fruit to power a trip to the Picos de Europa. If bad weather sets in there is a good deal of common space for relaxing. We stayed at the end of September and there was a very winsome stray young dog sleeping outside the hotel door. I hope that someone will realize what a prize he is and offer him a home before winter sets in.

We Stayed 1 night in August, 3 families in 3 rooms. It is a very beautiful location, quit and large comfortable rooms with a mountain view. The breakfast food was very good (included in the price), but dinner was very expensive. Near the hotel you can take the cable car to the top of the mountain for a loop trail. As one said: Go for the location but avoid the restaurant
