Stage Corcubión - Fisterra
The Fisterra and Muxía Way
Stage: Corcubión - Fisterra
A short 14 km stage, but with a high level of difficulty culminating in the mythical and symbolic lighthouse of Fisterra. The ocean opens before us like an enormous photographic panorama.
Corcubión- Sardiñeiro
From Campo do Rollo, in Corcubión, we start a steep climb which leads to the Campo de San Roque and the hamlet of O Vilar. We pass the towns of A Amarela and then Estorde. At Sardiñeiro we walk along stretches which were parts of the Camino Real.
Corcubión - Sardiñeiro
Sardiñeiro- A Langosteira
We cross a region which has one of the most beautiful shorelines in the Iberian Peninsula, with immense, tranquil sandy areas which cushion the rocky sea front and a very rough sea which has left hundreds of stories and legends of shipwrecks and salvaging.
We skirt the Cala do Talón, then we come to Calcova and reach the beautiful, extensive beach of A Lagosteira. In the background emerges the town of Fisterra like an island. The layout of the Camino runs between sand dunes, but many pilgrims decide to complete this stage on the beach.

A Langosteira- Fisterra
We enter Fisterra through the district of San Roque and, passing in front of the cruceiro or Cross of Baixar, we take the Rúa Santa Catarina and the Rúa Real.

Fisterra- Faro Fisterra
From Fisterra, following the road that goes up to the Lighthouse, we pass the church of Santa María das Areas, where the Santo Cristo of Fisterra is kept.
We reach the tip of the mythical lighthouse, km0 of the Way of Saint James. The oceans opens in front of us as a photographic wide angular, and all the sensations come together at this cape of the end of the world.
