Departure from Muxía (A Coruña)
A beautiful route around the Ría de Camariñas, which leads you through beaches, roads and forest paths, along the coastline and rivers. The only challenge lies in its length, as there are no steep climbs to navigate.

Departure from Muxía (A Coruña)
The route is well signposted in both directions, between Muxía and Fisterra. Despite the proximity to the sea, don't expect a walk on the beach. Today's journey runs through a rural and lonely territory, with dirt roads, forests and demanding slopes. There might be walkers coming from Fisterra, so say "Hola" and maybe chat a while. Get started early and look for a lunch stop in Lires, a town located right in the middle of the day.

Departure from Dumbría (A Coruña)
You can almost smell the sea (and almost see it) but there's still over 20 km to Muxia, although the sea comes into view long before. The route alternates sections of tarmac, without much interest, with several stretches of dirt road through forests. Looking at the profile of the stage, you can see that the descent towards the coast is not exactly easygoing, rather a continuous up-and-down, with moderate unevenness.

Departure from Mazaricos (A Coruña)
Third stage of the Camino Finisterre. After the magnificent River Xallas, which marks the start of this stage, the path becomes very pleasant. Dominated by wind turbines, it crosses expanses of heather, meadows and forests, sometimes of eucalyptus, sometimes of pine. Before reaching the Ria de Corcubión, the route takes you past the sanctuary of Our Lady of the Snows and over the O Cruceiro da Armada Pass.

Departure from Mazaricos (A Coruña)
The first 3 km of this stage are fairly simple but then there is a bit of a climb up to Monte Aro. Our route goes up to a viewpoint to enjoy the panoramic view, but there's no need to go all the way to the top, because 500 meters before the top there is a right turn and the begining of a steep descent along a dirt track. On the descent of Mount Aro, good views over the Xallas valley can be enjoyed, including the great Fervenza reservoir.
Second stage Camino Cabo Finisterre - Negreira to Santa Mariña

Departure from Negreira (A Coruña)
This is an easier stage than the classic 33.6 km from Negreira to Olveiroa, through a really rural environment but with a few uphill climbs. In the first ten kilometers we cross lush forests of pine, chestnut and oak trees, then we go through a clearer patch of land. At the end, there's a small village that is friendly and worth exploring.
