This route starts at the Nature Interpretation Center, in the center of Santa Eulalia de Oscos.
After visiting the center observing the educational material that shows us the richness in flora, fauna and ethnography of the area, we can complement our information with a tour of the path that will help us to identify in a short time the different ecosystems and forests of the region. After a few meters we enter a characteristic mixed deciduous forest in which we find, among other species, oak, chestnut, birch and hazelnut trees. In the upper part of the forest gradually opens up and almost without noticing we are surrounded by scrub (heather, gorse, ferns and broom) that allows us a wide panoramic view overlooking the valley of the river Agüeira, which crosses the municipality in a NW-SE direction and the highest and most humanized areas of the municipality. In the descent to Pumares we pass by several meadows where it will not be difficult to see cows grazing accompanied by their young, meadows watered by the river Agüeira, which also feeds another characteristic type of forest, the riparian, which has a wide wealth and biodiversity formed by species such as alder, ash, willow or hazel. From Pumares we will return by our tracks to the crossroads, where we turn right and return to Santa Eulalia.
The trail starts at the entrance of the village, where we will find a suitable place to leave the car. After a few meters we will find an information panel that will give us a general idea of the itinerary.

The route begins in the upper part of the village of Bres through a wide dirt road that leads to the Guxo mill, in excellent condition and also has in its vicinity a mini power plant.
Iniciamos la ruta en el pueblo de Piorno, que se recomienda recorrer porque conserva excelentes muestras de arquitectura tradicional de los Oscos en piedra, pizarra y madera.
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 itinerary begins in the village of A Revoqueira, three kilometers from San Martín.
