カルノタのおすすめランニングルート

The climb to Mount Pindo, known as the "Celtic Olympus," is one of the most spectacular hiking trails in Galicia, both for its natural beauty and its mythical and symbolic significance. At the summit, there are breathtaking views of the coast, Cape Fisterra, and the Lobeiras Islands.

Ézaro Beach, located in the parish of O Ézaro (municipality of Dumbría, A Coruña), is one of the natural gems of the Costa da Morte in Galicia. It is especially known for its proximity to the famous Xallas River waterfall, which flows directly into the sea, a unique phenomenon in Europe.

The way to the summit is a bit sweaty, but easy to walk in shorts and well signposted. You reach the summit in about 70 minutes. With the knowledge I have now gained after the tour I have just completed, I would now take the same route back. The way back - as others have already written - quickly becomes very thorny (gorse and blackberries) and the path becomes increasingly narrow. You are bound to get caught on the thorns all the time. It was a pretty bloody affair in shorts. In addition, shortly after leaving the summit, a thick cloud of fog rolled in from the sea and swallowed the mountain. With the cloud came heavy, constant drizzle. I was completely soaked in no time - from above and from the sides due to contact with the vegetation. All of this made the way back feel four times longer than the ascent and was then simply no longer fun. What the rain also showed: good hiking boots are absolutely essential. The rocks then become quite slippery in places. The climb was in mid-August, starting at around 10 a.m. (it is highly recommended to start early, as it is almost always cloudy/foggy in the afternoon) at 20 degrees.

A spectacular natural spectacle. Very impressive!

Ézaro Waterfall (Fervenza do Xallas) is a unique landscape in Spain where a river flows into the sea through a succession of waterfalls.

Also known as the Cascada de Ezaro, the beautiful waterfall, easily accessed via a wooden walkway, empties into the Rio Xallas. There are also several hydroelectric power plants, a tourist office and cafes.

The top of the Mount Pindo viewpoint is marked with an ordinance stone. Spectacular views towards the bay below and the ocean.
