Eucalyptus Forest

Highlight • Forest

The trees in the picture are giant eucalyptus trees (Eucalyptus regnans).
The giant eucalyptus is the tallest deciduous tree in the world and, in favorable locations, can reach heights of up to 65 meters in 50 years.
The trees were brought to Europe from Australia by a Galician missionary in the 19th century and have adapted well to the climate in Galicia.

Church of Saint James in Lestedo

Highlight • Religious Site

Santiago de Lestedo, also known as Lestedo, is a parish and village in the municipality of Palas de Rei, in the province of Lugo. This parish is crossed by the French Way, which runs through one of the most beautiful native forests on the route. On the banks of the Camino, there is its parish church, dedicated to the Apostle Santiago. The church, of simple construction, has a rectangular nave with two access doors and a presbytery at the head. In addition, it has a cemetery in its surroundings. If you have the opportunity, I recommend visiting this historic place and enjoying its beauty and tranquility. 😊
