A bronze statue of a pilgrim leaning into the wind stands at the Alto de San Roque (1,270 m), perfectly capturing what it feels like to walk this exposed ridgeline. On a windy day — which is most days — the statue's posture makes complete sense.
The views from here stretch across the Galician mountains in every direction. The descent toward Hospital de la Condesa begins from this point.
