에스타카 드 바레스 주변 최고의 교통량 없는 자전거 라이딩 코스

The Cantabrian Route does not go up to Cabo de la Estaca de Bares, the milestones continue directly towards the Esteiro estuary, another hidden gem in the repertoire of dune beaches on the Galician Cantabrian coast. The Camino crosses the sandy beaches of the estuary via a wooden walkway, passes by the O Picón tower and reaches the “most beautiful bench in the world”, placed on a natural balcony on the coast at the entrance to the Ortigueira estuary, between the Estaca de Bares and Cape Ortegal. The viewpoint is not only landscape, it combines the sound of the waves, the contemplation of the movement of the waves fifty meters high, the coastal islets, the coastal wall melted in the mist of foam that floats in the air after colliding with the rocks, light, colors, it is a place with a special magic, especially when the weather allows you to enjoy a good sunset. The Nature Trail ends shortly after, passing through Espasante beach and closing the route at the viewpoint where the Santa Eulalia de Ladrid church is located, in the environmental environment of the protected natural space of the Ortigueira-Ladrid estuary, included in the Network Natura as a Special Protection Area for Birds. The return to Viveiro is along the same path, instead of returning through Os Castros, you can go around Monte da Croa to the east towards O Porto do Espasante and travel through the seductive coastal landscapes again until the end of the long day of cycling in Viveiro.

This section of the path runs along a wooden footbridge exclusively for pedestrians and cyclists. The path is perfectly marked along the entire route.

O Porto do Barqueiro owes its name to an old boatman who used to cross passengers between this port and O Vicedo until a metal bridge was built at the beginning of the 20th century. This fishing village is traditionally a sardine fisherman, although nowadays shellfishing also plays a major role in its economy. The authenticity and beauty of its urban complex has attracted a lot of tourism that has become a thriving activity.

If you go to the Estaca de Bares lighthouse, go up to the Semáforo de Bares, I would say, mandatory, just for those 360* views it is worth it. And in the nature hotel at this point you can enjoy its pleasant terrace for a drink.

Several great trails radiate along the spine of the ridge leading out to the cape
