The Church of Our Lady of Fatima in Fontei, located in the municipality of A Rúa, Valdeorras, Ourense, is a modern temple built between the 19th and 20th centuries. This church stands out for its two slate-covered towers and its neo-Gothic style. Every year, in May, a festival is held in honor of the Virgin of Fatima. It is said that the famous Catalan architect Antonio Gaudí may have influenced its design, although there are no documents to confirm this. ⛪

In O Bañadoiro in Vilamartín de Valdeorras we can find this metal suspension bridge that crosses the Sil and allows us, in addition to capturing beautiful snapshots of the area, to cross from one bank to the other and take hiking routes.

A highlight along the way. The path doesn't actually lead over the bridge. But you should take it with you

Churches unfortunately mostly closed
