As Cruces variant: 32 km to Sobrado

From Baamonde there is another way to Sobrado: through Parga, O Vilar and As Negradas. It is 32 km, 8 fewer than via Miraz. The Xunta waymarked it in 2017. It leaves this stage’s route at Toar (Sambreixo), after the chapel of San Alberte.

It has fewer services and no albergue in the official register. Where to sleep in Parga, according to the Xunta accommodation register (1 October 2026):

  • Parga Natura Alojamiento · guesthouse · 26 beds · 642 411 371 · parganatura.com
    Shared rooms for 5 with a bathroom: €23 per person. They also have private rooms from €75. Prices include breakfast and a small packed lunch to take away (2026 prices, given by Parga Natura on 19 and 23 October 2026).
  • La Cuevona · village house, in O Covelo · 12 beds · 657 985 564

Parga Natura suggests splitting this section into two stages: Vilalba – Parga Natura, 27 km, and Parga Natura – Sobrado, 25 km. Distances given by the guesthouse on 20 October 2026.

In O Vilar there is the Taberna da Modia. It is not in the official accommodation register.

Sources: Guitiriz Town Council (turismo.concellodeguitiriz.com and email of 19 October 2026), the official stage page on caminodesantiago.gal («a complementary, shorter way») and the Xunta accommodation register (1 October 2026). This variant is not on the map: the official route we use only includes the way via Miraz.

Spotted something wrong? Tell me

I read it myself and check the source before changing anything. Don’t include personal data.

Tell me what day you arrive in Santiago and I’ll email you the day before

One email, the day before you arrive: where to leave your backpack, the Compostela, that day’s Mass and anything that has changed. While you’re walking I won’t write: this website remembers your stage, so open it every morning.

One email the day before you arrive and, if something changes that affects you, a notice. Nothing else. Signing up is free. So is unsubscribing.
