The Walk

From praia do Curro to As Grelas
The Anllóns River, slowly flowing towards the Atlantic

This walk of almost 4 km will take you to discover the mouth of the Anllóns River that forms the beautiful ría de Ponteceso. From praia do Curro, a paved path, with hardly any elevations and perfectly cyclable, takes us along the southern shore of the river offering a wonderful view of the sand bar that protects this area, providing a refuge for wildlife, especially birds, with vulnerable or endangered species such as the Kentish plover. In fact, in our tour we found an ornithological observatory dedicated to the naturalist José Luis Rabuñal Patiño.

After a stretch we will arrive at A Carballa, where the capital of the municipality is located, in a more urban environment, where we will also find the small sandy area of Navaliños.

The route ends at the so-called praza de Cánduas, in the area of As Grelas, where there is a space-viewpoint shortly before reaching it, from which we can glimpse a beautiful panoramic view of the mouth of the Anllóns River and in the background the stamp of monte Branco dominating the landscape.
