O Pobo - Santa Marta

In O Pobo an alternative route into Pontevedra presents itself on the left side of the road — turn left to follow signs toward the Rio Tomeza. This riverside path is 3.6 km to the Pontevedra albergue (near the bus and train stations), while the original road route to the same point is 2.8 km. The riverside path is longer but infinitely more pleasant.
