At 21 kilometers, this stage is 4 kilometers shorter than the average mountain stage on the Camino, allowing time to explore the ancient palloza stone dwellings. The misty pass into Galicia ascends 600 meters, rewarding hikers with lush green valleys. The pallozas—circular Celtic huts with thatched roofs—are unique to this region and date back over 1,000 years, offering a historic contrast to the typical Romanesque churches found elsewhere.
