Hiking

This bridge, along with the Lugo and Ourense bridges, was the only way to cross the Miño without using a boat, which is why the pilgrims' route had to pass through here.

Hiking

Again and again on the pilgrimage route - like here on the 28th stage of the "Camino Frances" from Barbadelo to Hospital da Cruz (stage classification according to the "Rother" hiking guide) - valleys have to be crossed and rivers to be crossed. The bridges are sometimes comparatively modern, sometimes medieval and sometimes even older in origin. Here at Portomarin, however, it is not a river that our small group of pilgrims has to cross, but a reservoir.

Hiking

Depending on the water level, the bridge with the black water below is a bit scary for people afraid of heights.
