Asón-Agüera, River system and comarca in eastern Cantabria, Spain.

The Asón-Agüera territory spans 261 square kilometers, encompassing the basins of two main rivers and numerous valleys with limestone mountains.

During the Middle Ages, this region formed part of the Merindad de Vecio, with settlements developing along the riverbanks and mountain passes.

The region maintains nineteen municipalities where traditional stonecutting crafts and fishing practices continue through dedicated museums and cultural centers.

Visitors can access multiple hiking trails connecting the valleys, with designated parking areas near the Asón waterfall and the principal municipalities.

The 70-meter-high Asón waterfall emerges directly from a limestone cliff face, creating one of the largest karstic spring systems in northern Spain.
