Green landscape in the Río Negro valley in Aller

Xurbeo Waterfall in Aller: PR-AS 295 route guide

A short walk from Murias leads to one of Aller's best-known waterfalls. Use this guide to plan the outing, then recheck the official route source before setting out.

Xurbeo Waterfall is reached on the PR-AS 295 path starting in Murias. Aller Turismo classifies it as a low-difficulty out-and-back route.

It works well as a half-day plan, leaving time to explore the Río Negro valley without overloading the day.

Official route facts

Aller Turismo describes the route from Murias down towards the Río Negro, across a bridge and through a sequence of climbs and descents to the waterfall.

Its current listing gives 1.1 km and 30 minutes for the outward leg. Turismo Asturias publishes a separate family-route profile with a different total measurement, so recheck the source you use rather than combining figures from different conventions.

Build Xurbeo into a day from La Fuente

  1. 1. Start in Murias

    Recheck the official route page and follow the local PR-AS 295 waymarking. Access, parking and trail conditions can change, so we do not present them as fixed facts.

  2. 2. Walk without rushing

    The outing is short but includes elevation changes. Wear suitable footwear and allow time to return along the same route.

  3. 3. Keep the rest of the day flexible

    After the walk, choose another Río Negro valley plan that fits the season and conditions rather than trying to stack too many routes.

After the walk: stay in Murias

Xurbeo does not have to be just a quick stop. Turn it into a slower day in the Río Negro valley and add a meal in Murias. Our day plan connects the walk with El Corral de Murias while leaving opening hours, prices and availability to the restaurant's current information.

Seasonal context

Xurbeo fits naturally into an autumn forest break and can also be paired with Aller's summer programme. Water flow and conditions are never guaranteed.

Before setting out

  • Recheck current route information and access notices.
  • Wear suitable walking footwear and dress for the weather.
  • Stay on the marked path and leave no waste.
  • Check pet conditions separately for each activity in your day.

Use Santibáñez de Murias as your base for Xurbeo

La Fuente is your place to stay; the walk itself always depends on current official information and real conditions on the day.
