The Camino goes from Miraz along the road to Seixón for almost one kilometre until it takes a detour on a footpath climbing towards the Alto da Mámoa. From here you should go back down to the road 2119, crossing several villages until you reach A Marcela, where you can have something to eat.

You continue along this interior rural landscape of footpaths until you reach the LU934 linking Ferrol with Sobrado dos Monxes, already in the province of A Coruña.

In Sobrado, you can see its famous Monastery of Santa María, nowadays also a pilgrims’ hostel managed by Benedictine monks. The first large building was erected in the 12th century, although its origins date back two hundred years before. This is listed as a historic monument, one of the most important medieval convents in the province of A Coruña.
