Dumbria is small, but it's the only town on the Muxia branch with a shop for staples. There are a few restaurants as well. If you need anything between The Great Divide and Muxia, this is your chance.

The name comes from a Celtic root meaning "dark waters," a reference to the Rio Xallas that runs through the valley. The town sits in one of the least populated corners of Galicia, which is saying something.

The Road

The camino between Dumbría and Trasufe requires you to cross the busy AC-552 road, nothing too major be it is in a bend where drivers can easily overlook a crossing pilgrim.

This was the only bar open in town. Was charged €17.50 for Menu del Dia. I was not told how much it is was until afterwards. This place is trying to rip off pilgrims because they can. Avoid if possible

Before you cross the narrow bridge with no footpath (as shown in the app) the yellow arrows lead you to a gravel path leading you to a bridge where you can cross the street beneath safely.

The Albergue in Dumbría is really nice as well: spacious, even with a terrace, good washing machines, cleane bathrooms.

The albergue is great - 10euro, clean, washing machine and dryer for 3euro each, fully functional kitchen and outdoor seating areas. Unfortunately after a 31km day we were very disappointed to find that the supermarket was very poorly stocked, we struggled to find even basic ingredients to put together a basic meal, many things were past their expiry date and mouldy or rotting. There is no supermarkets between Negreira and Muxia so probably best to find somewhere with good bars to eat at

Camino de Sant…

Just pass Dumbria, the route has changed. It goes off to the right on a natural path over a walking bridge underneath the highway and then brings you up to the road again. Please update to show that you don't have to walk over the road bridge or the narrow highway. The new path takes you down around and under.

The ATM in Dumbria has been closed. The municipal alburgue post covid is 8€.

It has fully equiped kitchen (except kettle). Heated floor in the last dorm :)
Supermarket is good too.
