    It's a real pity that some of the towns after Ribadavia are pro Miñoto Ribeiro and anti Geira. My very good friend Paco, who is a carpenter and lives in the small hamlet of A Mamoa, between Soutelo de Montes and Codeseda, has found his fantastic...

    Yes, totally agree. For some, a 16 km stage seems too short, but you can add 3-4 kms by heading out to San Xes. I know that not everyone is enamored of pre-romanesque/visigothic architecture, but it gives you a chance to walk along the river on...

    I would tend to agree with both @peregrina2000 and @jungleboy that it is well worth spending the afternoon/evening in Ribadavia. Churches, the castle, a lovely river walkway, the Jewish quarter . . . Leaving Cortegada it's uphill (not steep at...

    We must have missed this as I don't have any memory of it -- something to look out for if we ever walk the Geira again! This was another rainy stage for us, but we were already sheltered in Ribadavia when the hardest of the rain came and then...

    Ok, then, we expect a picture!!!!

    I hope the next forum member to walk by them will give us a sartorial update. I know someone who will be around there this Friday!

    I’ll downsize this to thumbnail later, but I just noticed that the dolls have been totally redressed and re-positioned. Even their hair has changed. And they have taken off their covid masks! I hope the next forum member to walk by them will...

    OK, here we go! This is a long stage (28 kms), so - as I mentioned about yesterday's stage - make sure you've stocked up with enough supplies in Castro Laboreiro. Plenty of fountains on the way for water. If you look at the profile you 'lose'...
