This route for hikers and cyclists is an ideal way to discover a part of Malpica that few people know about. It starts at the chapel of As Neves or Santo Antón and borders the east coast of Malpica alongside an area with cliffs where headlands alternate with small bays and islets. When you reach the bay of Os Muíños you’ll see five mills that may catch your attention, but the rocky folds of the coast are also well worth a closer look. The route then turns inland and passes through Loroxo, where the manor house of the Romero family is, then you come to O Ceán and head back to the coast and the beach of San Miro. After another rocky area with cliffs you arrive at he beach of Os Riás and As Torradas, where the route ends. Nearby is the hamlet of Santa Mariña in the municipality of Carballo.
