We recommend you to go deep into A Cidade Hill with the first rays of the sun. Here you will find the remains of an ancient Iron-Age settlement (castro) and of the houses of the farmers who inhabited it later. One of the most striking constructions in the area is a well-preserved aqueduct in the middle of the woods. It was built in 1787 and used for channelling water to water crops grown in terraces along the river.

In Fornelos de Montes you should definitely try barbequed chanfaina, a type of spiced sausage made with pork that everybody rates with five starts. Delicious filloas (Galician style crepes) prepared on baking stones will put the final sweet touch.

Start your afternoon at the foot of the amazing waterfall of Casariños, located near O Suído mountain range, which can be easily accessed from the recreation area of A Laxe. The cascade is made up by the union of two rivers, Barranqueira de Fonte Uceira and Barranqueira do Rego de Casariños. It is a rather unknown site but it is perfect to cool off during the summer.
