A Penela is a small hamlet between Rodeiro and Lalín. Notable for an enormous granite monument a local farmer has dedicated to former King Juan Carlos. No services.

Notice:

At the end of town where the camino meets the road, there's an official arrow pointing left — it's wrong. Locals sometimes smear it with dirt as a warning, and the man who lives nearby has been known to shout the correct way. Follow the road downhill instead.
