モンフォルテデレモスの天然記念物・トップ17

In the surroundings of Parada de Sil there are several paths marked by old “carriozas” or traditional paths that run through beautiful “castiñeiros” (chestnut) forests, with centuries-old specimens, buildings and ethnographic remains linked to chestnut cultivation. The “souto” of chestnut trees is a living symbol of the rural world of the Galician interior. The itinerary is a thematic walk in the chestnut culture, an open-air museum among centuries-old specimens that serves to protect resources and maintain the cultural and environmental value of the rural environment.

The Balconies of Madrid have a history that speaks of emigration, dreams and human adventures in unknown lands. The original name of Os Torgás was changed when the people of the Ourense villages of the Ribeira Sacra hung themselves from the cliffs of the River Sil to say goodbye to their loved ones who were leaving for Madrid and other lands in the south with the dream of a new life. The viewing points form small steps hanging over the river gorge and cause a special fascination. The breeze in the air carries the aromas of vineyards hanging on steep rocky terraces and melodies of elves emerging from enchanted forests, descendants of the primitive mythological beings who resisted the sacralisation of their plant kingdom by the monks and long before by the Roman legions. The walls of the Sil Canyon are a monumental sculpture five hundred metres high made of fierce, bare granite, a fortress of living rock up to the edge of the viewing points that filter the wind, the lights and the eternal songs of all the people who have passed through this fantastic natural balcony to say goodbye or find someone.

The Mirador de O Boqueiriño, in the Ribeira Sacra, is located on the slope of the Sil River canyon. It offers spectacular views of the terraced vineyards and the Sil canyon. Built from wood and Corten steel, it is designed to blend into the natural landscape. It is an ideal place to contemplate the unique landscapes of the region, known for their beauty and serenity.

The chapel and necropolis of San Vítor de Barjacoba (in Galician, Capela e necropole de San Vítor de Barxacova) is an archaeological complex located in the town hall of Parada de Sil, formed by the remains of a medieval chapel and a necropolis with excavated anthropomorphic tombs in stone. Many pieces of kitchen pottery were found, a conrad of Sancho IV of León, a real de vellón of Enrique II of Castile, and a ceiti of Alfonso V of Portugal. In one of the chapel's tombs a fragment of a human tibia appeared.

The walk is generally relatively easy - apart from the last 100m - where there are stairs and rocky steps to climb. Not suitable for people with walking difficulties!

Spectacular. It is part of the route of the viewpoints that you can do on Mtb or walking

The Augacaída fervenza is located in the Ribeira Sacra of Lugo, in the parish of Marce in the municipality of Pantón. This fervenza, a word that in Galician designates a waterfall, is largely unknown, even to people from Galicia, but the truth is that it is one of the highest in the community, since its waters fall from more than 40 meters Tall.

The Torgás recreational area is in an area where a bush called heather abounds, it is also close to leafy groves of century-old chestnut trees. Mountainous hiking area, with viewpoints that offer panoramic views of a river valley.
