Stage: Ribadeo-Vilanova de Lourenzá
We set off from the historic town and port of Ribadeo. The city stands atop a natural vantage point overlooking the ría. It boasts a noble past and offers a fascinating blend of medieval and modern architecture. The trail follows an old route – perhaps Roman or late Roman – to the end of the stage in Lourenzá.
Ribadeo- Vilela
The first population centre after Ribadeo is Ove. The route then runs through Covelas and climbs up to Vilela. All of these spots allow visitors to get a taste of local traditional life.
Ribadeo - Vilela
Vilela- A Ponte
After leaving Vilela, the route passes through Celeiros and O Vilar. We come to the parish of San Pedro de Arante and 15th-century A Nosa Señora das Virtudes Chapel. Beginning in the 16th century, there was a pilgrim hospital in this location.
