From O Irixo de Arriba to Valdesoiro, the route visits places that have been populated since ancient times. Thanks to modern-day depopulation, nature has reclaimed its land and forests and silvicultural plantations border the route.

This route is flat amd passes by the collapsed Valcobo mill, next to the Coedo river. A water channel brings you to an optional additional route that goes up to Coto do Castro, where you will find the barely visible remains of the rampart of Castro de Orros.

In Paredes, you will make a small detour to see the remains of its granaries. The path then descends to Os Casares and, after a small hill, will bring you closer to Valdesoiro.

On this route, we can find traditional mixed granaries made of stone and wood. These granaries do not normally rest on foundations, but on beams (walls or transverse pieces, the same width as the chamber) and have a slate or tile roof.
