A municipality in the centre of Ourense province with a Xunta albergue, bars, and basic services. After the mountain walking from Laza, the terrain here starts to flatten out and the Galician lowlands begin to assert themselves.

The village has a pharmacy and a small shop. It's a serviceable stop but not a place that demands lingering.

The Road

Paved walking along the road through the hamlets of Boveda (2.2 km), Vilar do Gomareite (bar) (0.9 km), Bobadela a Pinta (5.3 km), Padroso (bar) (1.1 km), Cima de Vila (1.7 km), and Quintela (1.4 km). As you enter Xunqueira de Ambia on a back road the albergue is one of the first buildings on your right.

Great place for coffee €1.20 and comes with free churros. Thursdays there is a market and then stall selling octopus was fabulous!!

Camino de Sant…

I ordered pan tostada (no coffee) and got four slices of toasted sandwich bread for 3.5 euro. Service was none too cordial. Avoid this trap.
