mailto:?subject=Content from Tourism of Galicia: PR-G 76 SENDA DO RÍO AVIA&body=I recommend you read the information PR-G 76 SENDA DO RÍO AVIA extracted from the Tourism of Galicia site on page https://www.turismo.gal/recurso/-/detalle/200430000175/pr-g-76-senda-do-rio-avia?langId=en_US
From the beautiful village of Pazos de Arenteiro, upstream from the imposing ruins of A Ponte da Cruz, the route runs southwards, along with the Avia riverbed. At the beginning, the route goes through a young forest, where there used to be vineyards. The walls of the terraces and the hidden ruins of the abandoned town of Viñoá indicate that the landscape was very different less than a century ago.
In Lebosende, the route descends towards Leiro along an old cobblestone road. It then approaches the Avia river and crosses over to the left bank over A Ponte das Poldras. From here, it is recommended that you visit the Monastery of San Clodio, declared an artistic-historical monument in 1931.
Following the route, you will reach the magnificent San Clodio bridge. The path continues through riverside forests and wide vineyards. In A Quinza, the path crosses over to the other bank of the Avia river and ends a few kilometres further down in the large Ribadavia recreational area.
It is recommended that you visit the town of Pazos de Arenteiro at the beginning of the route and Ribadavia at the end. These two towns are full of historical and architectural treasures.
Reach Pazos de Arenteiro via Ribadavia and Leiro or via O Carballiño. From either direction, take the OU-504 and then the OU-0414.
In winter, hiking boots are recommended.
