Starting from the vicinity of a laundry in the village of A Teixeira, the path leads to Cristosende between stone walls and is covered by a fairly dense native forest of oak and chestnut trees. The landscape opens up as you approach Cristosende, where the vineyards replace the forest.

Descending between terraces, the route approaches the Mao river where, through a diversion, you can join the PR-G 177 trail. Following the track along the main route, you can enjoy the beautiful views of the Sil river and its canyon.

The path leaves the Sil in the abandoned town of Fontao and turns towards the slopes of the Edo riverbed. A sign indicates access to the A Pena do Corvo viewpoint, with a wide panoramic view of the confluence of the Edo and Sil rivers. Following the route, when entering A Portela, the wide track becomes a narrow path, winding between walls and vineyards. The ascent passes through A Cruz and a viewpoint over Lumeares, to conclude again in A Teixeira.
