Stage Description
This is one of the most emblematic stages of the French Way, the starting point for many pilgrims seeking to obtain the Compostela. The route is a continuous up and down through rural Galicia, with a landscape of oak forests, meadows and small villages. It's a day of great beauty and pilgrim atmosphere. The arrival at Portomarín, a rebuilt town on the shores of Belesar reservoir, with its San Nicolás fortress-church, is an unique final stage.
