Stage Description

This stage variation is shorter but more mountainous. The route passes through the valley of San Xil, in continuous ups and downs through a beautiful landscape. The path runs through "corridors" shaded, beech forests and small villages. It's a more physically demanding option, but it rewards with authenticity and the tranquility of rural Galicia. Both variations converge at the entrance to Sarria, the most important town on the Camino in Galicia.
