Stage Description
This stage enters the valley of the river Valcarce, serving as an approach to the great climb to O Cebreiro. The profile is a false flat ascending, gaining height almost imperceptibly. The road runs in a narrow canyon through the valley, often close to the road, in a beautiful landscape. It passes through small villages. Arrival at Vega de Valcarce, a locality with all services, is the last major stop before tackling the mythical climb up Galician mountain.
