GALICIA Information - Natural Parks: MONTE E LAGOA DE LOURO |
 |
LOCATION: Municipalities of Carnota and Muros (A Coruña). SURFACE AREA: 1,096 hectares. ACCESS: C-550 Noia-Cee Road, after going through the village of Muros. SERVICES: Accommodation: Yes. Food: Yes. This natural site covers all the coastal line to the north and out of the ria of Muros e Noia. The highest point is located in a peninsula just at the mouth of the ria. Despite its poor relative height (241 m), the clouds from the Atlantic often touch this peak. According to a local saying, this phenomenon forebodes rain. At the foot of the mountain, the sea has closed with a large expanse of sand the natural outlet of the Longarelo brook, and has formed the small lake of As Xarfas, half-open by temporary channels. A track also leads to the lighthouse through the hillside. Its outline from the distance is impressive as well. To enjoy this view, we recommend walking through the magnificent beaches of Ancoradoiro, with an adjoining pine grove, or through the beach of Lariño. Another option, entering the village of Louro, is to look for the petroglyphs in A Laxe das Rodas. FLORA: Common Gorses (Vlex europaeus). In the small lake, brackish waters surrounded by Reed (Phragmites australis). Only presence in Galicia of the Lilaeopsis caroliana flower. FAUNA: In addition to the birds that arrive at this lake, Goshawks and Sparrow hawks (Accipiter gentilis and A. nisus). Large communities of reptiles such as the Jewelled Lizard, and amphibians such as the Golden-Striped Salamander (Chioglossa lusitanica). |
