Hiking

This small complex includes several buildings that date back to the year 1357. In the first place, there was the hospital, where the pilgrims of the Primitive Way were treated; in addition, there was a kitchen, bedrooms, stables and a chapel. Following the path is the As Pedras Dereitas dolmen, dating from the Neolithic.

The remains of the former hospital can still be seen very well. Right next door is the chapel with a beautiful figure of Jacob
