On the first day we will leave our starting point behind to begin our first stage of this exciting horse ride . Our first destination will be to reach Negreira , but on our way we will discover Ames , a beautiful Coruña town that we will have to cross overcoming a steep climb that will lead us to Trasmonte , a small and secluded dream mountain village. Here, we will go down a winding path that will take us to Ponte Maceira , a town located at the foot of the Tambre River and that shelters its emblematic Roman bridge, which it has not been affected one iota by the passage of time. If we have to highlight something about this part of the horseback excursion , it is its fascinating ancient architecture, where we find ancient intact Roman mills scattered along the banks of the Tambre River and other bridges Romans of the fourteenth century. It is in these parts where we will rest and eat to regain strength to reach Negreira with more energy. We will continue our walk until evening, when we will have dinner and get ready to rest in a rural house on the outskirts of Negreira .

On the second day we will depart from Negreira towards Olveiroa and here the landscapes change drastically. This time we will find extensive and almost endless plains of meadows totally tinted with green full of cattle, it is a part of the horse route that will take us through fields and villages, such as Mazaricos , with its characteristic popular architecture and its typical granaries, traditional and curious Galician structures that rise several meters above the ground to protect animal supplies and humidity. After a couple of hours of outing on horseback , in the distance we see a colossal body of water on the horizon, we will be seeing from a distance the reservoir on the Xallas river , area that Olveiroa keeps inside, where we will have dinner and stay. Basically, this part of the horseback ride is very rural.

On our third day we will depart from Olveiroa to Muxía , where a section of the horse ride full of constant ups and downs where we will have to cross villages. As we pass through this journey, we have to highlight the immense pazos, granaries and monasteries that we will find and that powerfully attract attention.We will continue our way until we will subtly hear the roar of the waves in the distance and we will see a blue that belongs to the Cantabrian Sea, which is lost in the immense horizon. We will continue and each time we will be able to hear and feel the sea more clearly, so much so that we will almost be able to feel its aromas. Eventually this part of the horse route will transport us to an almost unreal and fanciful place, marking a strong contrast, since we will find ourselves on extensive white sand beaches that are just a short time from Muxía , a fishing village with an infinity of charms and traditions. Our walk will take us to come across the A Virxen da Barca church , perfectly balanced on a cliff and which protects the legend that, in this area, the Virgin Mary gave a stone boat to the Apostle Santiago to help him in his preaching in the north of the country. After several hours of horseback riding , we enter Muxía , always bordering the coast and walking along its beaches and dunes until we reach the promenade, where we will have dinner and rest in a hotel .

To finish our journey on horseback , we will depart from Muxía to Cape Finisterre on the fourth day . We will walk through a mountainous part and we will witness the force of the tides that hit the Costa Da Morte in a truly unique way, which quickens anyone's pulse and cuts words off. In the afternoon we will arrive at Finisterre , bordering dunes and long beaches. We will ascend a beautiful climb, always with the sea by our side as a companion until finally we reach the emblematic Cape Finisterre , a beautiful and colossal cliff that juts out into the sea, giving the impression that behind its steep and black rocks, is the end of the earth, hence its name Finisterre , which in Latin means end of the earth .
