    Hiking

    Monte Faro (also known as Monte do Faro) is the highest peak in the Faro mountain range, with an altitude of 1,187 meters. This natural area is declared a special area of conservation (ZEC). The mountain marks the limit of natural separation between the municipalities of Chantada and Rodeiro, and from its summit you can see the four Galician provinces

    Hiking

    The hermitage and recreational area at the top offer wide panoramic views. Furthermore, according to calculations made by César Parcero, a CSIC scientist, Monte Faro is the most visible point in Galicia, from where a larger area of the territory can be observed. A stunning place to enjoy nature and views! 🌄
