Welcome. In truth I did nothing more than put ‘Best things to see and do in the Picos’ and ‘Nicest towns and villages in the Picos’ into Google and then surf through the top 10 or so hits.
You know you way better than we know you. What would I do if I wasn’t handed instant holidays on a plate?
A. I’d look at a map, say from Michelin and find my base town, in your case Potes.
B. I’d look at the suggested things to do and places to see and mark them on the map.
C. I’d then look at the roads that joined them to Potes. Some might be too far away to do there and back in a day. Some might be easy to join up into an itinerary that suits you.
D. Sometimes there might only be one or two roads that join them up anyway, mountains or hills or rivers dictating why that should be.
E. if I didn’t have a paper map, I’d do this in Google maps or in say, ViaMichelin, whose choice of routing algorithms is pretty good. Or I’d use something like The very popular Kurviger,
F. Whichever method (or methods) I’d use I would always look at the distances A to B and back to A and at the estimated times, remembering that tiger times given do not allow for any delays and / or more importantly, time off the bike seeing and doing ‘stuff’.
PS I’d also have a good look in:
