The Capilla here is dedicated to the Virgen del Camino and also houses an image of the Virgen de la Leche — protector of children. The camino turns left at the church and crosses a large highway before following a separated pedestrian section along the road.

History:

The Capilla here is dedicated to the Virgen del Camino, but also has an image of the Virgen de la Leche (yes, milk), the protector of children.

The Camino:

From the church here turn left onto the road and cross the large highway. You will soon begin walking alongside this road, on a pedestrian section that is paved and separated from automotive traffic. Less than 2km from the church you will pass under the highway and very soon after that the camino leaves the road up a dirt track to your right. It is here, at kilometer marker 109.278 that the camino may detour due to high water. Otherwise, it is back over the highway and onto a dirt track into Ribadelouro.
