    We just finished-there are plenty of places. The last six miles to Vilanova on the long stretch from Armenteira to Vilanova- less so.

    Alternative accommodation Armentiera

    Our VERY favorite section was Armentiera to VilaNova de Arousa...the first half or so, of the 15-16 miles walk is riverside and in a green canopy of lusciousness..TONS of waterfalls.
