Este proyecto pionero e inédito, pretende impulsar y enriquecer Los Oscos a través de la vertebración artística, ofreciendo una conexión entre artistas, visitantes, naturaleza y tradición. Resaltando la belleza, cultura y tradición de los Oscos. Para ello se ha elegido una ruta circular de 10 Km. Dicha ruta comienza y termina en Santa Eulalia de Oscos.
La ruta discurre por el valle del río Agüeira, donde el caminante además de descubrir las obras de arte instaladas a lo largo del sendero, se topa con lugares de valor etnográfico. Entre ellos destaca el Museo Casa Natal del Marqués de Sargadelos, en la aldea de Ferreirela de Baxo, y pueblos como As Barreiras o Ferreira, donde la ruta ofrece un espacio ideal para una pausa en su área recreativa, que en verano, se convierte en una playa fluvial donde se pueden alquilar canoas para disfrutar del río.
El recorrido está acompañado por la sombra de frondosos bosques autóctonos, donde abedules, avellanos, robles, arces y castaños centenarios forman parte del paisaje, ofreciendo un entorno de gran belleza, armonía y tranquilidad.
Durante el verano del 2024 se ha dotado a la mitad de la ruta (unos 6 kms que van desde Santa Eulalia hasta Ferreira) de más de 16 creaciones artísticas de muy diversas índole.

In the Teixo and just behind the hostel starts the forest track along which begins the walk to the Alto de Ouroso. The path is wide and passable by all-terrain vehicles, so there is hardly any possibility of getting lost. The route runs comfortably between wide pastures, heaths and pine forests of repopulation to reach a landing on which there is a small lagoon where at mid-morning many horses come to this point to water and refresh themselves in the shade of the pines. The animals graze in a semi-wild state and require little attention from their owners, which is why the number of horses has increased considerably in recent years.
The route begins in Louteiro, which is accessed after taking a detour to the left shortly before leaving Vegadeo in the direction of Galicia. From the chapel of this village begins the route once used by pilgrims and pilgrims on pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela, who avoided the main roads to pass products from Galicia to Asturias.
The route starts in Piantón, a charming village that was once the capital of the council, located about two kilometers from Vegadeo in which we recommend a walk around the square and a visit to the church. We cross the so-called Roman Bridge and take the path to the left towards Arcilo. The path begins with a slight ascent through a deep eucalyptus forest mixed with remnants of native vegetation: chestnut, holly, laurel, … fed by numerous streams.
We begin the route in San Martín de Oscos where we can see the parish church, with a Latin cross plan, large porticoed space and inscription of 1828. To the right of the facade we observe one of the most characteristic hórreos of the Oscos with a mixed roof (slate and straw), which corresponds to the primitive models. In front of the church we have the mansion of the Guzmanes, an old manor house of the XVIII century, which preserves in the portico of its main entrance a coat of arms carved in stone. We cross the bridge that crosses the San Martín river to begin the ascent to Mount Marón, entering a small forest of birch and oak trees, which make our walk even more pleasant.
The route starts in the center of Vegadeo in the area known as the Fondrigo, located at the exit to Galicia. From here we start the ascent to Miou, where we will find a crossroads where the path forks and we can go on either side, since from this point the route is circular.
La Ruta de Os Ferreiros es un recorrido circular que invita a descubrir la esencia de Taramundi a través de su paisaje, su historia y sus oficios tradicionales. Un paseo accesible y lleno de encanto, perfecto para disfrutar de la naturaleza y el patrimonio cultural del concejo.
