Vilouxe Viewpoint

Vilouxe is on the border with the municipality of Parada de Sil. You must leave your car at the entrance to the village on an esplanade by the chapel and from there cross the village and walk some 800 metres to the viewpoint, probably the most breathtaking of all that looks to Canón do Sil.

This is a natural Viewpoint that has not been upgraded so it is advisable to take care when approaching either of the two points from which there is the most iconic view of the river Sil in the Ribeira Sacra: the meander known as the Coto das Boedas, an impressive granite block over 700 metre high that drops vertically into the river for over 400 metres.
