Palas de Rei → Arzúa
Twenty-first section · Through Leboreiro, Furelos and Melide
The way leaves Lugo province through Leboreiro and its tympanum Virgin, crosses the Furelos bridge, passes Melide where the Primitive Way joins the French Way, then drops to the río Iso at Ribadiso before Arzúa. At Castañeda, the memory of pilgrims who carried stone for the cathedral.
Main line via San Xulián, Casanova, Leboreiro, Furelos, Melide, Boente, Castañeda and Ribadiso. Several short climbs and descents; road crossings at Boente and before Arzúa: take care.
