The Neira, with its cold waters from the eastern mountains of Lugo, flows into the left bank of the Miño. It is a river of great ecological richness which, from the Neira bridge until it flows into the great Miño, forms part of this protected space. As it is included in the Biosphere Reserve “Terras do Miño” it has hill-walking routes and riverside recreation areas.
Excellent examples of riverside forests and even a forested island can be found here. There are also outstanding agricultural landscapes featuring hedgerows, among other things.
