We begin this route at the houses of Castiñeiras in the parish of Saint Andres de Boimente. We must climb about 100 metres by an asphalted road.
Then go down and later go up to reach the forest of Buio, 60 hectares of forest with different sorts of trees. Continue our journey until we reach the “ Curro de Candaoso”. This place is very known because there a famous party called “ A rapa das bestas” takes place the first Sunday of July except that the first of July coincides on Sunday then it celebrates the second Sunday.
This party celebrates in many places of Galicia from June at the beginning of August and it is about cutting the horsehairs and branding the horses which live wildly in the nearby forests.
