Santa Cristina Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

This bridge is very close to the monastery of San Xoán de Caaveiro. It passes over the Eume River and is the starting point for numerous hiking trails. It is surrounded by a thick and beautiful forest, where it is a pleasure to walk at any time of the year.

Monastery of Saint John of Caaveiro

Highlight • Religious Site

Located in the heart of the Fragas de Eume natural park, between the banks of the Sesín and Eume rivers, this monastery stands in the middle of an oasis of vegetation. Although the name may be misleading, it is actually a set of buildings that can be visited: two churches, an archive, cells, etc.

September 4, 2022, Fragas do Eume: Monasterio de Caaveiro (vuelta en autobus)

Since the weather was bad that day, we took the bus for the way back. During the summer months, when you can only get as far as the interpretation center by car, it runs back to the interpretation center every half hour and also stops at the parking lot in front of it. The bus service was free.

A very pleasant route along the Eume River. To get to the Caaveiro Monastery, take the Sesín River path at the fork to see the old mill. NOTE: This route is not suitable for everyone. Before reaching the fork, there is a section at the end where you have to avoid a rock. There are ropes to help you (photo attached). The difficult part isn't so much the climb, but the descent down the other side. The humidity in some parts of the trail can also make the path slippery (there are sections with rocks).
