Stage Description

This is the final stage of the Primitivo Way as an independent route. It's a trek through a "rocky terrain" that crosses the Sierra do Careón, the last mountainous obstacle. The landscape is of great beauty, with panoramic views from above. After the descent, the path approaches Melide, and the pilgrim starts to notice a significant increase in the number of walkers. Arrival at Melide marks the union with the multitudinous Camino Francés. It's a bittersweet moment: the end of the solitude of the Primitivo and the entry into the bustle of the main route. The celebration usually takes place by enjoying the famous pulpo de Melide.
