Weather information is temporarily unavailable.

The route runs through the Carreirón Natural Park (part of the Umia-O Grove Intertidal Complex), in the south of A Illa de Arousa. Along it, you'll see very varied ecosystems: rocky outcrops, coves both small and large, dunes, marshes and lagoons. You'll also enjoy watching water birds if you're there during the migration seasons (spring and autumn); the dunlin or corremolinos is the most common bird on the island, and gives the route its name. You can also watch the small fishing boats close to the coast and the shell-fish gathers who work both on foot and from boats
