Stage Description
This stage offers two variants, one for St. Xil and the other for Samos. Both are of great beauty. The Samos variant, longer, allows visiting the impressive Benedictine monastery. Arrival in Sarria, the starting point for many pilgrims, is an animated final stage. It's a journey to enjoy nature and history, a prelude to the last stages of the trail.
The stage from Triacastela to Sarria is a 18 km journey that offers two variants, one through San Xil and another through Samos. The route starts in Triacastela (650 m) and follows a mainly descending profile with some undulations until the town of Sarria (450 m). The route passes through a beautiful landscape, with forests and meadows. It is a peaceful walk without difficulties, allowing you to enjoy the scenery and arrive on time to explore the destination town. Sarria, the starting point for many pilgrims, is an animated final stage. This stage combines gentle exercise with rich historical experience, a perfect balance in the French Way.
