Taramundi
Taramundi is a municipality in the Principality of Asturias, Spain. It neighbors on the north side with San Tirso de Abres and Vegadeo, on the east side with Villanueva de Oscos and Vegadeo, on the south side with Santa Eulalia de Oscos and A Pontenova (Lugo), and on the west side with Lugo.
It is one of Eonavian speaking councils of Asturias.
Taramundi is part of the Turía Valley or “Valle del Turía”, a small valley on the western border of the Cantabrian Mountains in the northwest of Spain which is close to beaches and is divided by two counties: Asturias and Galicia. It consists of an area of 90 km2 (35 sq mi), 3910 inhabitants and is 200 m (660 ft) above sea level. There are two main towns are A Pontenova (Galicia) and Taramundi (Asturias).
The climate in the region is pleasant throughout the year. As with the rest of northern Spain, the climate is more variable than the southern parts of Spain and is characterised by an Atlantic climate. The average temperature in summer is usually around 26 °C (79 °F). The average temperature in winter is 8 °C (46 °F); 12 °C (54 °F) in the day and 4 °C (39 °F) at night.
The Turía River gives its name to the valley. The valley is surrounded by hills and mountains, including, Sierra de Piedrafita (900 m, 3,000 ft), Sierra de Ouroso (1,033 m, 3,389 ft), Sierras de Dendin (900 m, 3,000 ft), Sierra de Teixedais (900 m, 3,000 ft) and Sierra de Eirua (700 m, 2,300 ft).
Also Taramundi is part of the Eo River, Oscos and Buron lands Biosphere Reserve. A Biosphere Reserve is an international conservation designation given by UNESCO under its Programme on Man and the Biosphere (MAB). The World Network of Biosphere Reserves is the collection of all 531 biosphere reserves in 105 countries (as of May, 2008). Biosphere reserves are created to promote and demonstrate a balanced relationship between humans and the biosphere. The area included in the Biosphere Reserve occupies a surface of 158,883 hectares (392,610 acres) of which 215 km2 (83 sq mi) belongs to the area of the Turía Valley.
Agriculture, fish farming and tourism are the principal areas of growth for the region. Although there has been a fall in the primary sector in recent years and an increase in the service sectors as rural tourism, agriculture still remains the largest economical activity of local economy.
Micro businesses and family run businesses are very characteristic of the region. Construction, commerce, hotels and rural tourism also account for high percentage of local business.
