Eo estuary path

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.

Suppose we decide to continue on the right, reaching shortly an area that allows us to see from above a beautiful view of the Eo estuary, a natural area included in the regional network of protected natural areas considered a Site of Community Interest (SCI), Special Protection Area for Birds (SPA), in addition to being part of the list of wetlands of international importance. We will continue along a dirt road perfectly conditioned reaching in a few meters a recreational area where we can rest or sit and enjoy the environment in which it will not be difficult to find some of the more than eighty species of birds recorded in the Eo estuary. From here and after a short descent we reach the pontoon area that will allow us to approach the estuary giving us the feeling of walking on the water especially at high tide. After a few meters we reach the jetty area, now recovered and equipped with wooden platforms that in summer time will be useful for sunbathing. Finally we cross Louteiro, we arrive at Miou, and from here to the starting point after having enjoyed a pleasant walk.
