The Río Negro, traces of mills on the way to the sea

This route starts in the rural town of Os Muíños, in the parish of Moraime, going down some stairs to a small recreational area and washing place. It follows a path, mainly in the form of a wooden footbridge, adapting itself to the course of the Negro River.

We can see several mills, some of them open, conserving the millstones, large circular pieces of granite masonry that were used to grind the grain. Once we can see the mouth of the river at praia de Area Maior, we cross the stream and go up a narrow path between laurel trees to a more main road that soon leads us to an asphalted road that we leave on the right along a path that will take us to the sandy area car park, where this route ends.
