The first village you will find after leaving A Laxe is Prado, after 2 kilometres. You cross the beautiful bridge of Taboada on the River Deza and you continue your climb past the cross and the Romanesque church of Santiago to Transfontao, where you will find a beautiful 18th-century manor.

A cobbled path and then a gravel road will take you to the
Avenida del Parque, already in Silleda. This is a key spot for agricultural
events and provides many services as well as lots of “parrilladas”, steak
houses where you can have a nice “churrasco”: grilled pork or beef on charcoal.
You follow from Silleda to Bandeira and from there the
Camino goes past hamlets such as Dornelas, with their vegetable gardens and
fields.
The River Ulla appears, magnificent, with its two tall bridges: one
recently built for the fast-speed train, and the other for the older railway
line.
You have to cross the river and leave the province of
Pontevedra behind to enter the province of A Coruña, with Ponte Ulla, in the
municipality of Vedra, as the first village. Then you continue along an
underpass and along the path that leads to Outeiro.
