| Start the walk by the sign for Camino de Bubión (1090 m). The
lane goes uphill and bends right. Branch off left on a path by a
wooden pole (3min) (1115 m). The path ascends to a concrete road
(9min) (1165 m). Turn left, walk some 50 meters, and take a path to the
right.
You reach Bubión by a fountain (Fuente
Barrio Bajo) (30min) (1270 m). Keep ahead uphill. You pass the Hondera
fountain and washing house on your left. When you come to a T-junction,
turn left on Calle Real. By the street you encounter a sign for a sports
centre and for Camino
del Río pointing straight ahead. Soon the sports centre comes into
sight. At a fork (34min) (1285 m), gå left downhill. The sports centre
is now on your right.
A wide path branches off left (37min) (1275 m). You see Capileira
in front of you. The path leads
downhill to a bridge (45min) (1260 m). After crossing the bridge
continue straight forward. When the path forks, do not go left, but make
for the bridge that you see on your right (1h) (1145 m). Soon
after, you
encounter signposts (1h02min) (1145 m). Bear left on a path signposted
to Puente
Molino. Cross the Mill Bridge (1h06min) (1125 m) and keep
straight ahead. When you meet another path (1h11min) (1160 m), turn left
cross the brook.
Higher up you discern
Capileira behind you
and Bubión and Pampaneira in front of you. The
path crosses a
brook (1h23min) (1230 m) and comes to a junction by a house (1h36min)
(1255 m).
Follow a white arrow to the left. Turn left also at the next junction (1h56min)
(1090
m), but at the following, turn right (1h59min) (1075 m).
When the path descends to a track (2h03min) (1040 m), turn left. The
track slopes down to a bridge
(2h06min) (1020 m). Looking down you see the rushing water in the narrow
canyon. Bend right after the bridge, and keep right also at the next
junction (2h13min) (1020 m).
When you come to the A-4132 (2h20min) (1020 m), follow it back to the
northeastern corner of the village (2h27min).
