At the end of the Rúa de Peregrino in Triacastela, the Camino de Santiago forks, offering two main routes to reach Sarria:
San Xil Route: This is the historic and most direct route, which crosses the San Xil valley, passing through picturesque villages and rural roads.
Samos Route: This variant is a little longer and passes through the Benedictine monastery of Samos, one of the oldest in Spain.
Both routes have their charm and offer different landscapes and experiences.😎🚶♀️😊

There are two options here: either via Samos or San Xil.

From here you have to decide which of the two paths you want to take. One is shorter, but the longer one is calmer and more beautiful
