This is the longest stage of the French Way within the Galician community, with 29 kilometers separating you from your destination. We recommend taking it easy and enjoying the surroundings, as it’s one of the most beautiful stretches of the route. As you enter the province of A Coruña, dirt roads, lush forests, and medieval bridges will guide your way to Santiago de Compostela.
A stop in Melide is a must for every pilgrim, as it’s the capital of Galician octopus. You can taste this delicacy at any of its many pulperías. After replenishing your strength, the remaining kilometers to Arzúa won’t require much effort. Once you reach Arzúa, you’ll have the rest of the day to relax body and mind.
In Arzúa, don’t miss the opportunity to taste the typical cheese for which it’s known: Denomination of Origin Arzúa-Ulloa, along with other local specialties.
