Meandros del Nora, Natural Monument in Les Regueres and Oviedo, Spain.

The Nora River forms pronounced curves with slopes exceeding 70 degrees and height differences of more than 100 meters along its course.

The Meandros del Nora received Natural Monument status in 2003 and later became part of the Natura 2000 network as a Special Conservation Area.

Three observation points, including Mirador de la Peñona and Mirador de la Lladera, allow visitors to witness the river's geological formations from different angles.

The site lies 20 minutes by car from Oviedo and offers limited parking spaces in Rañeces and Priañes villages for nature exploration.

The river section houses various wildlife species including otters, black kites, Egyptian vultures, peregrine falcons, herons, cormorants, and common kingfishers.
