Discover Helguera
Accommodation in Helguera
Helguera can be planned from several perspectives: its manor houses, the San Antonio patron saint festival, and the Senda Helguera. For your accommodation decision, you can also consider its proximity to Puente San Miguel and the Autovía del Cantábrico, as well as Posada La Cotía, which is located in Helguera. This gives you the chance to decide in advance whether a festival date, historic buildings, or a hike is especially important for your trip.
Location and orientation
Helguera is less than a kilometer from Puente San Miguel and close to the Autovía del Cantábrico. These are two different reference points for getting your bearings: Puente San Miguel identifies a nearby town, while the Autovía is a road. When choosing your destination, you can consider this geographical location alongside the cultural and hiking-related attractions.
Manor houses in the Helguera area
Several noteworthy historic manor houses are located in the Helguera area. The González de Bustamante manor house is explicitly included in this group. The Fernández Velarde manor house is located in the San Antonio district. These provide two different kinds of information for planning your visit: the González de Bustamante manor house is described as noteworthy, while the Fernández Velarde manor house is associated with a specific district. If you are interested in manor houses, you can distinguish between the two based on these different details.
San Antonio patron saint festival
The San Antonio patron saint festival is celebrated every year on June 13. The 2023 Fiestas de San Antonio were scheduled to run from June 9 to 13, with June 13 set as the main day. The program for that day included a solemn Mass in honor of the patron saint, San Antonio. The annually stated festival date and the 2023 program offer different information: June 13 is given as the annual date, while June 9 to 13 are the dates for the 2023 program. If you would like to plan your trip around the festival, check the dates for the year you intend to travel.
Senda Helguera and hiking trails
The Senda Helguera is one of the routes in Reocín that the municipality is working to improve and signpost. Information boards with maps and points of reference, as well as vertical signposts, guide hikers along the walking trails in Reocín. The Senda Helguera is a named route, while the references to maps and signposts apply to the walking trails in Reocín in general. This allows you to include hiking as a separate focus in your travel plans alongside the manor houses and the festival, without conflating the different geographical references.
