Various detours from Triacastela to Sarria

1.70

A Ferrería

Lasciando Triacastela, alla fine del paese troverete un bivio che presenta due alternative per raggiungere Sarria. Le distanze riportare sono relative all’itinerario da Triacastela a Sarria passando per Aguiada.

Dopo Samos, il cammino si divide nuovamente, permettendovi di raggiungere l’itinerario per Calvor e San Xil ad Aguiada. Questa è l’opzione consigliata, poiché è quella che procede lungo la strada per il tratto più breve. Alternativamente, si può anche continuare sulla strada per tutto il percorso da Samos a Sarria.

Per il monastero di Samos - (25,1 aguiada) or  (21.3 km along road)

Alla fine del paese, girate a sinistra per imboccare la strada per il monastero di Samos (dove sono presenti dei servizi). Il sentiero procede attraverso piccoli borghi, percorrendo stradine di campagna.

Per Calvor e San Xil - 18,2

Alla fine del paese girate a destra. Attraversate la strada principale per poi seguire una strada più piccola. Il sentiero procede attraverso piccoli borghi, percorrendo stradine di campagna.

I have an Android phone and it looks like the App is adding 8.7km of distance to the original route that are towns from the alternate route (Foxos to Sivil). This is affecting the accuracy of daily mileage for this stage.

Yes we are having the same issue with “wise pilgrim all walks app” on an android phone. It is adding up the distance of both alternative routes. It works perfectly on iPhone but android is showing Triacastella to Sarria is showing at 38.3ks Samos to Sarria is 15.4ks

It appears on the app that choosing the San Gil route from Triacastela to Sarria is longer than the Samos route. Everything I’ve read (including the description on this app) says the Samos route is longer . Is anyone else having this issue?

This “shorter” traditional route is some of the prettiest paths I’ve been on this entire Camino. Can’t imagine why there is another route. This one has everything.

I have hesitated a long time in front of the two signs but decided to go via San Xil. It was one of my favorite stage sjnce Saint-jean-pied-de-port. Nice paths full of large trees, birds and small beautiful hills and villages. A donativo where you can eat and rest in the middle of the stage. Totally recommended!

The route to Samos was beautiful, hilly, and I’m so glad I took it. It never felt unsafe as someone suggested. I really enjoyed the quiet pastoral route.

I took the short route: beautiful views and forest paths and very quiet. No regrets. And the best: there is the project "Wisdom Of Way" , in Google Maps it's called Terra De Luz ... lovely people and coffee, tea and lots of food donation based ... You can chill outside ... and they have a meditation hall ... and there's the samosa labyrinth. Definitely worth a visit!

Most Pelegrinos take the short route. Luckily we chose the longer route via Samos. Nice and quiet with lovely views. Also got to visit the monastery when we stayed overnight at Samos.

April 2024: I took the short route and it was very beautiful. Halfway a very nice “donativo” place turn up with snacks, refreshments and an outdoor toilet with a beautiful view.

In difference to the other comments I have to say that their was enough food options on the short way (I think 2 or 3 bars), up and down all the time but many shadow ways.
