    Monte Pedras in Fisterra, also known as Monte do Facho, is famous for the Pedras Santas (Saints' Stones). These are two large rounded stones located at the top of the Fisterra promontory. Several gifts and legends are attributed to them, such as the ability to determine the fidelity of spouses and judge the guilt of criminals.

    The stones are located at an altitude of 238 meters and offer a breathtaking panoramic view of the sea and the sunset. Furthermore, it is said that the Virgin Mary rested on them. 😊

    The coastal paths that lead to the highest point of the peninsula, the Pedras Santas, are exposed granite rocks. This is a spectacular view towards the beach of Mar de Fóra
