It is believed that their ancestors were the Celts, who later mixed with the Iberians, inhabiting the green mountains that <strong>stretch to the lands of Burgos<\/strong>. These people were distinguished by their courage and struggle for independence. The strong bond with their land and their isolation have shaped the personality of the Pasiegos, who are characterized by their <strong>individualism and distrust<\/strong>. Thanks to this, they have preserved their ancestral customs over the centuries. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Visiting Vega de Pas is like immersing yourself in a rich cultural heritage and discovering a community proud of its roots and traditions.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"gb-block-image gb-block-image-6c355c79\"><picture class=\"gt-avif-picture\"><source type=\"image\/avif\" srcset=\"https:\/\/glutendtrotters.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Foto-Valle-del-Pas.avif 1366w, https:\/\/glutendtrotters.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Foto-Valle-del-Pas-300x169.avif 300w, https:\/\/glutendtrotters.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Foto-Valle-del-Pas-1024x576.avif 1024w, https:\/\/glutendtrotters.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Foto-Valle-del-Pas-768x432.avif 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1366px) 100vw, 1366px\"><source type=\"image\/webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/glutendtrotters.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Foto-Valle-del-Pas.webp 1366w, https:\/\/glutendtrotters.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Foto-Valle-del-Pas-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/glutendtrotters.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Foto-Valle-del-Pas-1024x576.webp 1024w, https:\/\/glutendtrotters.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Foto-Valle-del-Pas-768x432.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1366px) 100vw, 1366px\"><img data-no-lazy=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" data-gt-avif=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1366\" height=\"768\" class=\"gb-image gb-image-6c355c79\" src=\"https:\/\/glutendtrotters.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Foto-Valle-del-Pas.webp\" alt=\"Valle del Pas en Vega de Pas\" title=\"Foto Valle del Pas\" srcset=\"https:\/\/glutendtrotters.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Foto-Valle-del-Pas.webp 1366w, https:\/\/glutendtrotters.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Foto-Valle-del-Pas-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/glutendtrotters.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Foto-Valle-del-Pas-1024x576.webp 1024w, https:\/\/glutendtrotters.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Foto-Valle-del-Pas-768x432.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1366px) 100vw, 1366px\" \/><\/picture>\n<figcaption class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-3a0d348e gb-headline-text\">Stream in Vega de Pas \/ Canva<\/figcaption>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Famous_Figures\"><\/span><b>Famous Figures<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Vega de Pas has given the world several illustrious Cantabrians who have left an indelible mark.

These small stone and slate houses, half-dwelling and half-stable for livestock, reflect the transhumant life of the Pasiegos. The Pasiego landscape is distinguished by the dispersion of these cabins on the mountain slopes, creating a unique mosaic of structures that do not form &#8220;traditional towns.&#8221; This spatial organization responds to the livestock-raising vocation of the Pas Valleys. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"gb-block-image gb-block-image-81a8d84f\"><picture class=\"gt-avif-picture\"><source type=\"image\/avif\" srcset=\"https:\/\/glutendtrotters.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Cabanas-en-Vega-de-Pas-1024x576.avif 1024w, https:\/\/glutendtrotters.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Cabanas-en-Vega-de-Pas-300x169.avif 300w, https:\/\/glutendtrotters.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Cabanas-en-Vega-de-Pas-768x432.avif 768w, https:\/\/glutendtrotters.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Cabanas-en-Vega-de-Pas.avif 1366w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"><source type=\"image\/webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/glutendtrotters.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Cabanas-en-Vega-de-Pas-1024x576.webp 1024w, https:\/\/glutendtrotters.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Cabanas-en-Vega-de-Pas-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/glutendtrotters.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Cabanas-en-Vega-de-Pas-768x432.webp 768w, https:\/\/glutendtrotters.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Cabanas-en-Vega-de-Pas.webp 1366w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"><img data-no-lazy=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" data-gt-avif=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" class=\"gb-image gb-image-81a8d84f\" src=\"https:\/\/glutendtrotters.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Cabanas-en-Vega-de-Pas-1024x576.webp\" alt=\"Caba\u00f1as pasiegas t\u00edpicas de Vega de Pas\n\nCANVA\" title=\"Caban\u0303as en Vega de Pas\" srcset=\"https:\/\/glutendtrotters.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Cabanas-en-Vega-de-Pas-1024x576.webp 1024w, https:\/\/glutendtrotters.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Cabanas-en-Vega-de-Pas-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/glutendtrotters.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Cabanas-en-Vega-de-Pas-768x432.webp 768w, https:\/\/glutendtrotters.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Cabanas-en-Vega-de-Pas.webp 1366w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/picture>\n<figcaption class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-f375e128 gb-headline-text\">Cabins in Vega de Pas \/ Canva<\/figcaption>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Families, with the <\/span><b><i>cu\u00e9vano<\/i><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (a large basket) on their shoulders, would move from cabin to cabin seeking the best weather conditions and the freshest pastures for their livestock according to the time of year.

This architectural jewel, with its combination of <strong>Gothic and Baroque styles<\/strong>, is a true sanctuary of peace and tranquility. Built in the <strong>18th century<\/strong>, it has been the heart of the religious and social life of the Pasiega community for centuries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Inside, you will be surprised by the pointed arches and the ribbed vault, along with the impressive main altarpiece. The church houses the venerated image of Our Lady of the Valley (Nuestra Se\u00f1ora de la Vega), which is the center of the local festivities. One of the most important celebrations is the feast in honor of the Virgin, which fills the place with joy and devotion. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"gb-block-image gb-block-image-9fe90f43\"><picture class=\"gt-avif-picture\"><source type=\"image\/avif\" srcset=\"https:\/\/glutendtrotters.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Iglesia-de-Nuestra-Senora-de-la-Vega-1024x768.avif 1024w, https:\/\/glutendtrotters.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Iglesia-de-Nuestra-Senora-de-la-Vega-300x225.avif 300w, https:\/\/glutendtrotters.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Iglesia-de-Nuestra-Senora-de-la-Vega-768x576.avif 768w, https:\/\/glutendtrotters.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Iglesia-de-Nuestra-Senora-de-la-Vega-1536x1152.avif 1536w, https:\/\/glutendtrotters.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Iglesia-de-Nuestra-Senora-de-la-Vega.avif 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"><source type=\"image\/webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/glutendtrotters.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Iglesia-de-Nuestra-Senora-de-la-Vega-1024x768.webp 1024w, https:\/\/glutendtrotters.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Iglesia-de-Nuestra-Senora-de-la-Vega-300x225.webp 300w, https:\/\/glutendtrotters.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Iglesia-de-Nuestra-Senora-de-la-Vega-768x576.webp 768w, https:\/\/glutendtrotters.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Iglesia-de-Nuestra-Senora-de-la-Vega-1536x1152.webp 1536w, https:\/\/glutendtrotters.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Iglesia-de-Nuestra-Senora-de-la-Vega.webp 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"><img data-no-lazy=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" data-gt-avif=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" class=\"gb-image gb-image-9fe90f43\" src=\"https:\/\/glutendtrotters.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Iglesia-de-Nuestra-Senora-de-la-Vega-1024x768.webp\" alt=\"Iglesia de Nuestra Se\u00f1ora de la Vega en Vega de PAs\" title=\"Iglesia de Nuestra Sen\u0303ora de la Vega\" srcset=\"https:\/\/glutendtrotters.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Iglesia-de-Nuestra-Senora-de-la-Vega-1024x768.webp 1024w, https:\/\/glutendtrotters.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Iglesia-de-Nuestra-Senora-de-la-Vega-300x225.webp 300w, https:\/\/glutendtrotters.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Iglesia-de-Nuestra-Senora-de-la-Vega-768x576.webp 768w, https:\/\/glutendtrotters.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Iglesia-de-Nuestra-Senora-de-la-Vega-1536x1152.webp 1536w, https:\/\/glutendtrotters.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Iglesia-de-Nuestra-Senora-de-la-Vega.webp 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/picture>\n<figcaption class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-374a9940 gb-headline-text\">Church of Nuestra Se\u00f1ora de la Vega<\/figcaption>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Furthermore, <strong>the church has been carefully restored<\/strong> to preserve its splendor, maintaining its original structure and its detailed decoration.

The Roman Bridge in Vega de Pas is definitely a perfect place to disconnect and let yourself be carried away by the magic of Cantabria. Take the opportunity to take a selfie with the sheep; they&#8217;ll surely bring a smile to your face!<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-4a97dba4\">\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-captioned data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CkqD8PJIBBH\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF;

We also recommend going to the La Bragu\u00eda Lookout; the views from there are breathtaking. Once you pass the La Bragu\u00eda mountain pass, you will find Pisue\u00f1a, a town where it feels like time has stopped. There is a very cool route of small waterfalls that can be perfectly done with children. You will also see the ancient Pasiego cabins in their full splendor. After Pisue\u00f1a, you will find Selaya and Villacarriedo. There you can buy some delicious sobaos (there are no gluten-free ones) and quesadas (Sobaos Josel\u00edn, at the entrance of Villacarriedo, has a gluten-free quesada). You can also buy rich Pasiego cheeses; we recommend the cream cheese (queso de nata) and the fresh cheeses.

There is a very cool route of small waterfalls that can be perfectly done with children. You will also see the ancient Pasiego cabins in their full splendor. After Pisue\u00f1a, you will find Selaya and Villacarriedo. There you can buy some delicious sobaos (there are no gluten-free ones) and quesadas (Sobaos Josel\u00edn, at the entrance of Villacarriedo, has a gluten-free quesada). You can also buy rich Pasiego cheeses; we recommend the cream cheese (queso de nata) and the fresh cheeses. The butter is also delicious; we consume it daily.\"}}, {\"@type\": \"Question\", \"name\": \"What is the distance between Santander and Vega de Pas?\", \"acceptedAnswer\": {\"@type\": \"Answer\", \"text\": \"The distance by car is about 64 km.

It is totally worth it as the landscapes are spectacular. We have been there in all four seasons. Vega de Pas in winter has a special charm; however, you have to be very careful with snow and ice. We strongly recommend never accessing Vega de Pas through Lunada, as it is a dangerous road. There have been fatal car accidents in the past.\"}}, {\"@type\": \"Question\", \"name\": \"Where can you park in Vega de Pas?\", \"acceptedAnswer\": {\"@type\": \"Answer\", \"text\": \"At the entrance to the town, there is a parking lot at the CEIP Dr. Madrazo school. There is also a parking area for motorhomes there. You can also park in the Plaza Dr. Madrazo (town center), although in high season it is harder to park. You will find a third parking lot heading toward the La Bragu\u00eda mountain pass, just after the playground.\"}}, {\"@type\": \"Question\", \"name\": \"Can you eat gluten-free in Vega de Pas?\", \"acceptedAnswer\": {\"@type\": \"Answer\", \"text\": \"Yes. El Caf\u00e9 restaurant, at the entrance of the town, offers gluten-free options on its menu. For dessert, the Josel\u00edn factory, in nearby Villacarriedo, makes a gluten-free quesada confirmed on its own official website, although it isn't always available; gluten-free sobaos are harder to find in the area, though the Las Quintas bakery, in Santillana del Mar, makes them.\"}}]}\n<\/script>\n\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-6edea782\">\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you are looking for a unique place to disconnect and discover all the amazing things to do in Vega de Pas, you cannot miss this little corner in the Pas Valleys (Valles Pasiegos).
