In the C- 640 road in the direction of Lugo at the Arredoada point turn on the right and take the forest track towards the mountain of Castelo which is situated at a height of 340 metres.
Beforee the peak of the mountain there is a viewpoint where we can admire the valley of Landrove and Galdo with the city of Vivero at the back. At the peak of the mountain there is a recreational area with beautiful groups of rocks and from there we can observe Bravos and fifteen low hills that surround the valley. At the peak there is a hermitage in Saint Martiño´s honour. The pilgrimage takes place between las fortnight of May and the first of June. It´s very traditional because people think rainwater which stay at the eroded stones at the foot of th hermitage is good to cure illnesses related to sight and hearing.
