GALICIA Information - Natural Parks: SERRA DO SUIDO






Municipalities of Ponte-Caldelas, Cotobade, A Lama and Fornelos de Mantes in the Pontevedra province, bordering Ourense. Together with the mountains of O Cando, the O Suido Mountains set up a first barrier that receives a high volume of Atlantic waterfalls in the south of the Galician Backbone. Up to one thousand metres, the orography conditions a landscape of elevations and high plateaux.
It has nice forest areas such as the carballeiras and pools in Verdugo or along the river Xesta, next to the village of A Lama. If we walk to the parish of A Xesta, the P.R.-G 25 hiking way will lead you to the mountain up to Foxo do Lobo, where it is still possible to see the device which was used as a trap to hunt wolves.

Another P.R-G, the n° 24, crosses these mountains. Under the name of A Freixa, it follows the Royal Road to Rivadavia. Other interesting spots are the Faro summit in Avian and the carballeiras in Barragan, between the Pazos of Borben and the municipality of Fornelos de Montes.

When on the Ourense hillside, we can see the waterfalls of Touran, and three additional small ones that are formed in the rainy seasons, next to the hamlet of Mouriscados. In this mountain, you can find some atypical, solid buildings known as chouzos, covered by big granite slabs, that were used to keep the grazing cattle.
