👍 Entre Ponteareas y Mondariz-Balneario, se encuentra un desvío para acceder a este mágico entorno, donde podremos apreciar lo que fue un un asentamiento de la era prerromana. Se puedem ver lo que fueron sus construcciones, la muralla que lo rodeaba, y lo que debió ser un petroglifo y una oquedad tall...

👍👍 Impresionante el sitio! Fenomenal la guía María con sus explicaciones interactivas que nos hacían estar más atentos.

👍👍 Very well preserved Roman city, the path to get there is not very comfortable and impossible for a wheelchair, it is not signposted so it is easy to miss it and in the area there are loose wild boars, the area is incredible and the legend of Santa Mariña too .

👍👍 Se accede bien desde el pueblo yo dejé el coche a un lado. Se llega a un mirador atravesando el castro... da gusto perderse caminando. El entorno botánico es fantástico. Bosque mixto Atlántico- Mediterraneo con robledal, alcornocal y encina, con pino piñonero. Dafne, escobonar, rusco, litodora, lau...

👍👍 What an awful place!!!! It is really spectacular, the remains of the tombs dug into the rock, the views, the surroundings, the road to here... It can only be accessed on foot but it is well worth the walk.

👍👍 The visit is worth it. Totally recommended. We were close by and we visited the interpretation center, the museum and the site of the Petavonium Roman camps, then the Casetón de los Moros dolmen and finally the Castro de las Labradas. Without a guide this visit would not be the same. I thank Franci...

Remains of a high-end Roman villa dating from the 4th–5th c. CE, with a visitor center & tours.

👍👍 Honestly, in the 20 years that I was living here I had never entered it until one morning I happened to come across it. I couldn't have made a better plan: the girls were very kind to me at all times and explained to me in great detail what the visit consisted of. I discovered information about my...

👍👍 Es un gran lugar para pasar el día con la familia, animales... El problema que veo es que todavía quedan visitantes que encienden barbacoas en los asadores antiguos, que ya no cumplen la normativa, con el peligro que eso supone. Es uno de los pocos entornos naturales que sobreviven. Debemos cuidarl...

👍👍 An amazing free guided tour of the Petroglyphs. The guide does a totally essential job since he makes you see the Petroglyphs in a totally different way. We are left with the desire to do the night visit that takes place in July and August every 15 days. Daytime guided tours are at 12:30 PM and 8:0...

👍👍 Castro excavado en parte, pero muy acertadamente, con fácil acceso y preciosas vistas de la ría de Arousa y el Atlántico abierto. Muy cerca del lindo mirador da Pedra da Rá, desde donde se accede.
