Stage 5. Quiroga-Monforte

STAGE 5 QUIROGA-MONFORTE

AOn this day we will have to face the hardest stage of the entire Camino. They are around 39 kilometers of constant slopes, ascents and descents. Those who prefer to make less effort can stop at A Pobra do Brollón, where there are two restaurants and a hostel to spend the night. After walking the entire Calle Real we left Quiroga. We pass under the N-120 and continue along the LU-623 until we reach a point located 4.1 km from the moment we left the hostel, where we must again pass under the N-120. The signs take us on the LU-933 for about 3 km. Here a detour to the right, uphill, leads us along a dirt track, between trees, to the Hermitage of Nuestra Señora de los Remedios. We have covered 13.2 km from the hostel. We now go down a local road to Carballo de Lor and Barxa de Lor, where we have to cross the medieval bridge over the Lor river. We went up a steep hill. On the right is a church, then a crossroads. Along a path we reach Castroncelos. Then, on an asphalt track, we will pass through Vilarmao until we reach A Pobra do Brollón. The exit from A Pobra do Brollón towards Cereixa is by road, partly bordering the Saa river. After crossing the LU-652 in a place where there is a cairn, a stone cross and a church, we also continue on our way to Rairos and Raigada. Then there is a section, also on the way and on a paved track we enter Monforte through the Ríoseco neighborhood.
