Viewpoint of the ría do Burgo

It is a coastal route in a densely urbanized area, but it still offers natural corners as well as good views of the ría da Coruña. We start at the port of Santa Cruz, in front of its castle, to continue along the promenade and climb some stairs to the parque das Galeras, which has a sports itinerary. We have views of the Santa Cruz cove, the coast up to the Mera lighthouse and in front of us the city of A Coruña.

The path takes us over the cliffs that open up towards praia Pequena de Bastiagueiro, and along rúa dos Fieitos we will reach praia Grande de Bastiagueiro. Then, going along rúa dos Mioporos we go up to Avda. Che Guevara, with his monument in a roundabout and we look out over the Nirvana viewpoint, which offers views of the golfo Ártabro, glimpsing the mouth of the ría de Ferrol with its outer harbour. Going down the rúa do Polvorín we will immediately find the Santa Cristina seafront promenade where we will finish this route.
