Water Route is one of the greenways catalogued by the Principality of Asturias in the municipality of Taramundi. It is 11.8 km + 0.9 km long. It is for pedestrian use only.
The route goes from Taramundi - Mazonovo - Área de descanso - Desvío Cascada de Os Esquíos - Os Esquíos - As Veigas - Os Teixois - Os Esquíos -. Its moderate difficulty asks a little more fitness than the simplest coastal or riverside trails, though it is still far from a mountain route.
It is promoted by Principality of Asturias, within the Asturias Greenways Catalogue (2011). As across the whole network, it is worth checking the current state of the signage before setting off: more than a decade has passed since the official cataloguing.
