The Walk

From praia de Alba to praia de Barrañán
Near beaches and cliffs

This is one of the so-called blue paths in Galicia, and allows you to easily walk or cycle along much of the coastline of the municipality of Arteixo, linking together several sandy areas distinguished with blue flag, such as Alba-Sabón, Repibelo, Combouzas or Barrañán.

From praia de Alba e Sabón, next to the outer port of punta Langosteira, to praia de Barrañán with its dunes, there are almost 6 km. It has wide stretches with separate areas for pedestrians and cyclists, rest areas and interpretive panels about the coastline, fauna and flora. In other sections, the path is narrow but perfectly conditioned.

Along the route we will discover other less known sandy areas, such as Area Salsa, Repibelo, Herbosa or Area Grande (Valcobo), before arriving at Combouzas (nudist). From here we have a good view of the extensive Barrañán sandy area, the end of our route. There are tourist services in both Valcobo and Barrañán.
