Finisterre and Costa da Morte Day Trip

Description

We'll depart from the meeting point of your choice in Santiago de Compostela at the scheduled time. After approximately 30 minutes, we'll reach the village of Ponte Maceira, where you'll learn about its history and inhabitants.

Next, we visit the coastal town of Muxia to see the Virxe da Barca sanctuary, overlooking the ocean, while discussing local history, legends, and mysteries. Here, we’ll also explore the history of Pedras d'Abalar and Dos Cadrís.

Our route continues to the Cape Finisterre lighthouse. On the cliffs, you'll hear folk tales about boats that vanished in this area, known by Romans as "the end of the earth". You will then have 1.5 - 2 hours of free time to have lunch in Fisterra, sampling the local food.

Following lunch, we'll stop in Muros and then walk to the Ézaro waterfall, created by the Xallas River, notable for cascading into the ocean. In Carnota, we'll view the world's largest hórreo.

After this visit, we'll return to Santiago de Compostela through la Ría de Muros and along the Costa da Morte.
