The Sil River defines the setting of Villablino — its valley gives this town in the Laciana district a broad mountain backdrop and has long concentrated settlement, roads and industry along its course. Villablino lies in the Cantabrian Mountains, within the Laciana Valley Biosphere Reserve, recognised by UNESCO for its mountain habitats and traditional land use. Coal mining was central to the town’s modern development, and its legacy remains part of local identity.
