Plan your visit to Polanco: practical information
Getting there and getting around
Polanco is connected with Torrelavega and Santander by road and rail. Requejada has a station, but check current services with the operator. To visit all eight localities and scattered attractions, plan travel by settlement; a walking route between neighbourhoods separated by roads or industrial railway lines is not assumed to be safe.
Camino hostel
The Regato de las Anguilas hostel is in Mar. The council website publishes requirements, contact details and conditions; confirm availability, season, opening times and prices before arrival. An old news story about a hostel opening in Requejada does not prove that it is still operating.
Plan safely
At Pozo Tremeo, keep away from the edge and follow the protected-area rules. At the port, estuary and industrial facilities, obey signs and do not enter closed areas. Check opening times for churches and cultural centres. View residential properties from public space.
