New alternative route (500 meters long):

In the vicinity of Orbenlle part of the alternative route that avoids the passage of the industrial estate since September 2013. The summary of this disclosure is based on the work of the AGACS on this track and that is the work of José Antonio de la Riera, Manuel Garrido Luis and Manuel G. Vicente Freixo:

The alternative begins 300 meters after the p.k 106,048 to Santiago. It is an entry on the left, next to the poster. This variant drops slightly between dense vegetation to the ford of A Ponte Baranco, about Louro, and then crosses a pass winter. From this point, a dirt road between vineyards and woodland reaches a paved track that goes by the parish of San Xurxo de Mosende, visiting places Monte, Vides and Cruceiro. A subsequent step of winter, known by locals as 'step Botate' flows into an earthy way. Then a local track access to the parish of Santiago de Pontellas with Centeáns houses. Here, a 'cross mortos' gives way to a magnificent cruise, located on the old Camino Real to Vigo. In this variant even more surprises await, as the chapel of San Carpio and cruise as well as the Quinta do Adro da Inquisition or where the path is separated from the Camino Real. A local road with pedestrian lane and cyclists leads from this point to the path that follows the trail of Louro river (do not you cross the river but you see arrows, always grow stronger with the channel right!) And reaches the same hostel for pilgrims O Porrino (Km 19.2).
