Stage Description

Stage of the Camino del Mar through the region of Ortegal, one of the most spectacular of the Galician Atlantic coast. The 27 km link Porto de Espasante with Cariño, crossing cliffs, coves and the coastal mountain range of Capelada, where some of the highest cliffs of continental Europe are located (more than 600 m vertical drop to the sea). Cariño is a fishing port with a long whaling tradition, in front of Cape Ortegal, one of the cardinal points of the Atlantic.
