Carballeira de San Lourenzo

Enter the oak grove at San Lourenzo for a shaded walk beside the Sarela and the former convent. Mature oaks create a distinctive riverside atmosphere.

Carballeira de San Lourenzo

Why go

The convent was established by the river in the twelfth century and later became a palace. The grove remains a distinct wooded setting on Santiago’s western edge. It is best combined with the Sarela path when conditions make riverside walking comfortable.

What to look for

  • Mature oak grove
  • Former convent beside the Sarela

Useful to know

  • Allow daylight for paths, views and changing ground conditions.
