Cross the Augapesada river, also known as Rego dos Pasos. This river forms the so-called Ames or Covas valley and converges with the Sar river in A Condomiña (Bertamiráns). The current bridge must have been built between the 17th century and the first half of the 18th century, but since Augapesada was an important road junction, it is reasonable to assume that a previous infrastructure already existed. It consists of a lowered semicircular arch and two spillways. The road is made up of large granite tiles, it has a grade level with volume and the parapets are made of stone.

Very beautiful bridge that still stands today - like the Roman Bridge in Trier.
