Stage
A Gudiña → Vilar de Barrio
Ease of walking: Moderate: a mix of paved village roads and compact dirt tracks with some short descents and ascents but no sustained climbs.
This stage drops off the high plateau around A Gudiña and follows rural lanes and minor roads into the rolling, granite-strewn countryside of Vilar de Barrio. It is a transitional section where elevations moderate and the landscape becomes more wooded and agricultural as you approach the village clusters of the municipality.
Scenery
Open plateau views near A Gudiña give way to hedgerows, oak and chestnut copses, granite walls and small farmland plots with scattered hamlets.
