mailto:?subject=Content from Tourism of Galicia: PR-G 148 RUTA DO MAR DE CORME E RIBEIRA DO ANLLÓNS&body=I recommend you read the information PR-G 148 RUTA DO MAR DE CORME E RIBEIRA DO ANLLÓNS extracted from the Tourism of Galicia site on page https://www.turismo.gal/recurso/-/detalle/170526000768/pr-g-148-ruta-do-mar-de-corme-e-ribeira-do-anllons?langId=en_US
Between Corme and Ponteceso there is a section of coast known for its rough seas. This was also home to the poet Eduardo Pondal, whose inspiration was fed by the amazing places along this trail.
The route offers two options: a coastal trail or an inland alternative, the PR-G 148.1 variation. Following the main trail, the route runs along Arnela, Osmo and Ermida beaches to Pedra da Serpe, a unique and mysterious stone sculpture in the shape of a winged serpent lying beneath a cross. It continues on to Balarés Beach and Mount Branco, where the waters of the Anllóns River join the sea, forming a sand barrier between the small islands of Tiñosa and Dos Cagallóns.
The inland variation (PR-G 148.1) climbs a gentle mountain to get a view of the Ria of Corme and Laxe.
The two routes come together to descend and cross the breakwater, a spectacular wall across the mouth of the Anllóns River built 50 years ago to drain the land so that it could be used for maize farming.
Today it is a wetland of significant ornithological importance, part of the Costa da Morte SCI and SPA.
After the breakwater, the trail continues another 500 m to Ponteceso. The end of the route is next to the house of poet Eduardo Pondal.
