Playa de Mar de Fora

Highlight • Beach

Great beach, but swimming is prohibited—it's a dangerous beach. I only had my feet in. Strong waves.

Great scenic tour, path partly difficult and thorny. Long trousers recommended.

The best for last 🥾 😎
Actually, we only wanted to walk to the Atlantic in Lires. But then we decided without further ado to walk the Camino dos Faros to Fisterra. And we have not regretted it. The path always runs along the coast, actually a mountain path, because a head for heights and sure-footedness are basic requirements for …

Today we're going off the beaten track, following the Camino dos Faros from the hippie beach up the mountain 🥵 sometimes wide, sometimes narrow paths lead along the coast, a herd of goats is standing in the path, so it's a different length, you should be sure-footed‼️ The views are fantastic 🤩, at some point we reach the beach, go …

Today, for me, is the most beautiful, but also the most strenuous, route. After leaving Fisterre through many narrow alleys, we reach the beautiful "hippie" beach. Then it's a steep climb. Behind the radio tower, an exciting route begins, above the sea with views of rocks, cliffs, bays, and bushes, flowers in a variety of colors.
Small, narrow, sometimes rocky, …

Today marked the final stretch of our journey. We decided to skip the initial 5-kilometer walk from Nemiña beach as our hotel was conveniently located along the route. It seemed like a sensible choice, considering that part of the path would have taken us along a paved road anyway. Little did we know that the route would present us with …
While I've been blessed with some amazing hiking trips, these eight stages on the Camiño dos Faros were truly the most intense walking experience I've ever had. Anyone who isn't afraid of heights, sure-footed, in good shape, and generally loves hiking should take on this fascinating trail.
