What to see and do in Santa María de Ordás

Santa María de Ordás
Village
Santa María de Ordás — Ordás in Leonese for the municipality and Santa María for the town — is a municipality of about 325 inhabitants on the banks of the Luna river, in the province of León, made up of the capital town and eight further villages: Adrados, Callejo, Formigones, Riocastrillo, Santibáñez, Selga, Villapodambre and Villarrodrigo, all of them “de Ordás.” It is well connected by road: nearby runs the Ruta de la Plata motorway, which links Gijón with Seville and has a toll access at Canales-La Magdalena, and it is crossed from east to west by the LE-460 road, between Torre del Bierzo and the CL-623, much used as a free alternative to the motorway and as the backbone linking the villages of the municipality. Its church is dedicated to the Immaculate Conception.
