Tips from the Community

An Argentona

A 12th-century Romanesque gem in the heart of the Val do Lor. Perfect for stopping for a moment, enjoying the silence, and remembering that the Ribeira Sacra isn't just about wine; it's also history in stone. Cyclist tip: a good excuse to rest before continuing to climb the hills.

A peaceful waterfront route that runs through Monforte and connects with the area's history. Between old mills and wooden walkways, the path is perfect for a gentle ride or a stroll at any time of year, although it's spectacular in autumn. Cyclist tip: ideal as a warm-up before a long ride... or as an excuse to finish off with a drink in downtown Monforte.

Parque dos Condes is one of Monforte de Lemos' most iconic green spaces, ideal for strolling, relaxing, or enjoying time with the family. The grounds originally belonged to the Escolapios School and were transferred to the city council in 1990. Since then, they have been transformed into a public park with ample free parking.

Founded in the 10th century, it is one of the most important monastic complexes in Galicia, combining Romanesque and Renaissance architecture. The monastery is part of a complex that includes the Castle of Monforte and offers panoramic views of the city. Its church stands out for its sobriety, while the Renaissance cloister is one of the most beautiful elements of the building. Today, part of the monastery has been converted into a tourist inn, allowing visitors to enjoy its history in a unique setting.

The viewing platform was designed by the Ola Estudio architectural studio, a Galician team specialising in landscape interventions and sustainable architecture. The viewing platform is built primarily from wood and Corten steel, durable and resistant materials that allow the structure to blend harmoniously with the natural environment. The use of Corten steel, which develops a protective patina that imitates rust, contributes to the rustic aesthetic of the Galician landscape.

Designed to offer panoramic views of the Ribeira Sacra landscape, especially the Cabe River valley and the surrounding areas of the city. From this viewing point you can see the terraced vineyards, the hills and the lush forests that characterise the region.
