    Hiking

    The Monte do Boi Fortress, also known as Monterreal Castle, is an impressive fortification located in Baiona, Pontevedra. This fortress has a rich history dating back to the 12th and 16th centuries, and has been a strategic point for the defense of the entrance to the Vigo Estuary and the Galician Rías Bajas.
    Today, the fortress houses the Parador de Baiona, a hotel that combines the elegance of a stately palace with the history of a medieval castle.

    Prominently situated on the hill overlooking the Ria, the castle is in good shape with views of town and the harbor. In the off season i haven’t been charged to enter, in summer high season, there is a lot of visitors and a fee to enter
