Ubiña Peak

Nature · Lena, Caudal, Asturias

Peña Ubiña, together with the Fontán Sur, crowns the Ubiña massif, on the watershed between the Asturian concejo of Lena and the León municipality of San Emiliano, between the Babia and Asturias regions. At 2,417 metres, it is one of the highest peaks of the Cantabrian mountain range. Jovellanos was already citing it in 1792 as «the famous Peña Ubiña». In a survey carried out in 1992 by the newspaper La Nueva España among mountain people of the Principality, it was voted the second most beautiful mountain in Asturias, after the Picu Urriellu.
