Cruzeiro dos Carrís

Highlight • Monument

A sign of identity of the Galician landscape and an expression of popular devotion, the crosses are erected at crossroads or near hermitages, churches and cemeteries. Castelao said that a cruise is "a pardon from heaven", because according to the great Galician writer, cruises are erected to be forgiven of some sin. Since there are about 12,000 cruises in Galicia, our faults must be great ... turismo.gal/que-visitar/destacados/horreos-pazos-e-cruceiros/cruceiros?langId=gl_ES

Part of the coastal path that joins Cedeira with Cariño, crossing the impressive Sierra da Capelada, with spectacular views. Chao do Monte, located 360 meters above sea level, below you can see the rocky and inaccessible Playa de Cortés
