The Os Grobos Forest, located between the municipalities of Becerreá and As Nogais (Lugo), is one of Galicia's most magical and secret corners, ideal for nature and fantasy lovers. It is a karst landscape with limestone rock formations shaped by moisture and the passage of time, covered in moss and surrounded by chestnut trees, oaks, ferns, and ivy.

In the small village of Ramil at the foot of the Camino, just before Triacastela, stands one of Galicia's most beautiful century-old chestnut trees. Its trunk spans 8.5 meters and, with its hollow spaces and thick branches that seem to embrace the tree, resembles an X-ray of time.

Large deciduous tree that is common in the mountains of Galicia. The fruits are covered with a green rind with thorns, the "erize". The season for harvesting chestnuts is November, and in Triacastela and throughout Galicia in general it is celebrated with a festival called "magesto". The main use of the chestnut tree is to obtain its wood and use its fruit as food for the population in general and as food for livestock.

This impressive tree is over 800 years old. A true natural monument.

Nice place to reflect

Signage on the Camino de Santiago is essential for pilgrims. Yellow arrows: These arrows will guide you throughout the entire route. They indicate the direction to follow, especially at crossroads. The yellow color is due to the contribution of the parish priest Elías Valiña, a key figure in the resurgence of the Camino de Santiago in the 20th century. Cairns or milestones: These concrete blocks include an arrow, a yellow shell on a blue background and the distance in kilometers to Santiago de Compostela. You will find them every 500 meters in Galicia. Scallop shells: In addition to being drawn on the markers, scallop shells are distributed throughout the Camino. They are universal symbols and have been carried by pilgrims for centuries. The open part of the shell indicates the direction towards Santiago. Good way! 🚶‍♂️🌟
