Cabrales in Spain is a breathtaking region hidden in the mountains of  Asturias, a beautiful evergreen region in Northern Spain. We invite you to discover "Cabrales", a delicious blue cheese birthed in the natural caves of the "Picos de Europa", Northern Spain's biggest National Park.

You will have the opportunity to go for a hike to one of the most stunning caves where this cheese is aged and you can help the cheese-maker transport a few wheels of this delicacy from the farm to the cave.

Once inside the cave, you will learn from the artisan cheese-maker how "Cabrales" is aged naturally surrounded by stalagmites and tufas.
