    Tips

    Hiking

    So far, the section from Sarria to Portomarín has always been on safe and wide paths. The descent to the Rio Miño on the historic route of the Way of St. James, however, is a rocky natural staircase, which should be entered with caution, especially in wet conditions.

    Steep descent, slow down. Danger of slipping and stumbling 🤙

    Rocky path and sometimes quite wet, it is better to go down carefully.
