Choose the right train journey and rail travel is not only relaxing but a holiday in itself. And that\u2019s certainly the case with the Pajares rail tunnel in northwest Spain which has been 20 years in construction.<\/p>\n

The now uninterrupted journey will whisk you from glacial lakes to stunning seaside vistas, forming part of the almost 50km Pajares Bypass between La Robla in Le\u00f3n to Pola de Lena in Asturias.<\/p>\n

The route serves both passenger and freight traffic and features 12 tunnels cutting through the Cantabrian Mountain Range, along with 10 viaducts.<\/p>\n

Asturias is famous for beautiful coastlines and an array of cute fishing villages and seafood restaurants – including 11 places to eat which boast one or two Michelin stars.<\/p>\n

In the heart of the area’s Cantabrian Mountains is the Las Ubi\u00f1as-La Mesa which is a UNESCO-designated biosphere reserve.\u00a0<\/p>\n

It provides sanctuary for rare and threatened plants and animals – including brown bears and the western capercaillie grouse.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Asturias is also home to Picos de Europa National Park which is a nature reserve famed for the glacial Covadonga lakes.<\/p>\n
