The Alto de San Roque is crowned at 1270 meters of altitude and is a gift for the eyes.
The silhouette of the pilgrim whipped by the wind represents the effort of all the people who make the Camino de Santiago, it does not matter if it is on foot or by bicycle.
From here you can enjoy a unique panoramic view of the surrounding mountains and one of the most photographed images of the Camino: the monument to the pilgrim against the background of the landscape.

Alto do Poio

Highlight • Mountain Pass

The Alto do Poio is crowned at 1,335 meters and represents the end of the agony for the pilgrims who come from previously doing the Alto do Cebreiro and the Alto de San Roque.
Here you will find a hostel and a hostel with bar service, so you can enjoy a reward by having a drink on one of its terraces and regaining strength before facing the descent.
The landscape, both going up and down, is unforgettable.
