From Palas de Rei to Arzúa

Information

Arzúa, known for its cheese and Jacobean history, offers a charming old town surrounded by green landscapes, perfect to explore on foot or by bike.

This is the longest stage of the French Route within the Galician community, so we recommend taking it easy and enjoying the surroundings, as it is also one of the most beautiful stretches of the route. A stop in Melide, the capital of Galician octopus, is a must for every pilgrim. After regaining strength, the last few kilometres won’t take much effort. You will also find a small oasis in Ribadiso de Abaixo, where, if the weather is fine, you can take a dip.
