Stage 7. Muxía – Nemiña (25.3 km)

Information

We are in the final stretch, where we have just over 50 kms to reach our destination, the lighthouse of the End of the Earth; we must not be in a hurry, because we have two of the hardest stages. In this stage, the stretch from Muxía to Moreira Beach has demanding climbs and descents, which will test our knees and legs, and then continue to Nemiña.

From here the stage becomes smoother, leading us to the Touriñán Lighthouse, the most westerly point of peninsular Spain, and from there to our destination, Nemiña Beach, famous for its waves for surfing.

This stage is part of the Way of the Lighthouses. Would you like to walk it with your accommodation already booked? These organised trips include it: Lighthouse Route from Malpica to Finisterre and Way of the Lighthouses Arou – Finisterre.

A demanding, spectacular stage. You leave Muxía along Lourido beach and take on three serious climbs — Monte Cachelmo, Punta Buitra and Monte Pedrouzo — with steep gradients and uneven ground; poles are highly recommended. In between, a lovely path beside the Cuño stream, with the remains of old mills. Before dropping to Nemiña you pass Cape Touriñán, the westernmost point of mainland Spain.
