Watch for:
O Pedrouzo – Avoid the temptation of following the main road out of Pedrouzo. There are very few arrows to get you back to the camino & following the road puts you in very real danger ad takes you away from the forest walk. Go to Wise Pilgrim app for directions out of Pedrouzo!
Amenal – No services.
Lavacolla – History: From the Latin “Lava mentula” which translates literally to “wash private parts.” Where medieval pilgrims bathed before entering Santiago.
