The route is made up of two circular sections starting and ending in the center of Villanueva. The longer one, about 12 km, coincides in part with the forest route.
The itinerary begins near the Town Hall, along a path that leaves the village towards the cemetery of the town, we continue towards the houses of El Río and arrive at Santa Eufemia, where we can make a stop to visit the Ecomuseum of Bread or rest in the recreational area. At this point begins the ascent to El Vale and Pena Grande through a native forest where we will enjoy the shade of birch, oak and holly trees. We continue towards the brañas of Lama, Chao de Bureiros and A Folgueirúa enjoying the magnificent views from the top. We descend the mountainside crossing the streams Morán, Ceilán and Vilanova river. On the verge of reaching the latter we can not fail to delight us with the contemplation of a magnificent cortín that gives us an idea of the importance that since ancient times had in the area the production of honey and wax. In San Mamed we are greeted by a charming wash house that invites us to stop and enjoy the magnificent examples of stone architecture. We cross the road and continue along the mountainside until we reach the village of Pacios, whose splendid architecture also deserves our attention. We continue through the oak grove of Pacios until we reach the road again, we continue along the road to Santa Eufemia and from here along the cemetery road to Villanueva. The short section, about 2 km long, begins next to the monastery of Santa María, ascending to Ovellariza and descending through a native forest towards the Riodepil stream, which we cross over a wooden footbridge, continue towards the Guieiro neighborhood and descend again towards Villanueva.
