The Road
Almost 3km beyond San Amaro, the Igrexa da Portela is an intriguing, semi-abandoned church (try the side door on the right). Capela de San Xusto is a chapel 2km further on.
After crossing the bridge over the Río Deva, the official tracks lead off the highway to the left for a longer but off-road way into Cortegada. A more direct way is to leave the highway on the right just after the bridge (following a Geira sticker), eventually passing under the road and climbing back up to it for the last 35 minutes into Cortegada.
