mailto:?subject=Content from Tourism of Galicia: PR-G 203 SENDA DA RIBEIRA&body=I recommend you read the information PR-G 203 SENDA DA RIBEIRA extracted from the Tourism of Galicia site on page https://www.turismo.gal/recurso/-/detalle/200522000137/pr-g-203-senda-da-ribeira?ctre=23%26langId=en_US%26tp=6
The route starts next to the emblematic García Rodríguez bridge (1376), also known as Ponte Vella or Ponte dos Ferros . This construction is named after nobleman García Rodríguez de Valcárcel, the lord of the lands on which he ordered it to be built.
After crossing a passageway, the route follows a wooden promenade next to the Eume river and the church of Santa María (16th century). Upon reaching the Isabel II Bridge, built in 1862, the trail crosses the river over a metal bridge and continues along the left-hand bank, ascending upstream, until it is located below the dam wall.
A short zigzag climb allows you to reach the recreational area of A Ribeira, the highest place on the route. You will then cross the dam and go down a pedestrian promenade next to the A Ribeira Nova recreational area. After passing the A Ribeira mill, the route enters the town again through the Parque do Eume. The end of the journey is reached at the Alende mill (1805), a large abandoned building. This route has an easy and attractive trajectory that coincides with the PR-G 147 trail several times.
As Pontes de García Rodríguez is an important town at the foot of the highway between Ferrol and Vilalba.
