Following breakfast, in the bar on the corner near the hotel, we walked the short distance to the caves. A long walk through the underground caverns led to the cave paintings - mostly horses and deer. Well worth the visit which took about 1 hour.
After visiting the Caves of Tito Bustillo and seeing the cave paintings (no photography allowed) we walked out along the Camino towards Leces. At the roundabout with the boat we turned right off the Camino, towards Tereñes, and walked up the steep hill into the village. Following a very welcome Coca Cola in the bar we then followed their directions turning sharp right and back towards Ribadesella. This led us along the tops of the cliffs past the lighthouse, then down through the woods. We saw a very rare orchid at the side of the track and went on to see the dinosaur footprints in the cliffs at Punta El Pozu.
