Atlantic Ocean

At Hospital, where it is said a pilgrim hospital  once stood,  the track splits one way to Muxia and our way to Finisterre. There is nothing  but the trail for 15 kilometres and from this path the Atlantic comes into view on the horizon. For those travelling from central France, Switzerland and Germany this is the first glimpse of the sea since starting out months before.

Past local places of pilgrimage and natural springs  the path finally descends steeply into Thee on the coast.
