Although the Parador is in a quiet spot, it is very close to Cervera, a town in the heart of the Montaña Palentina region which has preserved its traditional, rural character, inviting you to stroll through the streets. Cervera is a strategic location for exploring the mountains of the Cantabrian Range, a virgin natural area that offers perfect trails. Options include Roblón de Estalaya, where you will see “El Abuelo,” an incredibly long-lived oak tree; La Tejada de Tosande, with its ancient yew trees 5 or 6 meters tall; and the beautiful Senda del Bosque Fósil, on which you will pass the fossilized stumps and trunks of trees from a forest that existed 300 million years ago. Another fantastic option, especially if you have children, is a visit to El Robledal del Oso Adventure Park, a unique and fun way to explore a natural environment through sports and play trails.
