Bolmente's Viewpoints Cycle Tourist Route

Perfect route to get started in mountain biking, without major complications and with a family approach. It can be done with children, as it runs entirely on dirt tracks with asphalted sections with little traffic. It is fully integrated into the municipality of Sober as a circular route of 14 kilometers starting in Santa Marta, in the parish of Barantes.

The route runs along two of the countless viewpoints and natural vantage points over the Sil River Canyon: the viewpoints of A Cividade and O Boqueiriño, from where you can enjoy a unique landscape environment in Galicia. The granite walls frame the course of the river at depths of up to 500 meters with respect to the surrounding peneplains forming the canyon. The wine plantations on terraces that give rise to the “wine of Amandi” belonging to the Ribeira Sacra Designation of Origin stand out.

Paviment type: 0% road, 62% asphalted track (8.79 km), 35% non asphalted track (5.06 km), 3% paths and trails (0.42 km).
