Cerdeira Schist Village

Highlight • Settlement

A wonderful revival of old slate houses. This village, along with many others in the area, was in decline, but now they are being restored with great idealism and skill. You can linger here for a while; there's a café, hostel, library, etc.
The access to the village is steep and narrow.
