Approximate duration 7 h

184. Cabo Vilán Desde Reira
Cape Vilán from Reira.

This route includes part of the coast of Camariñas and has some magnificent views of the coastline and the Vilán lighthouse. It’s also a route with some historical interest because of the many shipwrecks that have taken place here.

Start from the ruins of the castle of O Soberano and head towards the beach of O Lago, then you go up to the chapel of A Virxe do Monte, from where you can get some amazing views of Muxía and the surrounding area. The track continues in the direction of the Vilán lighthouse. Cross the road that goes to the lighthouse and take the earth track to Reira. Pass by O Foxo do Lobo and keep walking to the English Cemetery, where some of the crew of the shipwrecked English vessel Serpent are buried. The trail then goes inland via A Portela de Reira, the viewing point of the hill of As Seixas and then reaches the hamlet of Mourín. Go from there to the town of Camariñas and you’re back at the starting point.
