The circular route begins next to the Boqueiri\u00f1o viewpoint, where we ascend along a dirt track that serves as a firebreak. Here, you will find breathtaking views of the canyon, alongside areas of scrubland, cork oak and strawberry tree forests, and oak groves interspersed with vineyards. The route is named after a remarkably large eucalyptus tree which is over a hundred years old.<\/p>\n

Distance: 4.45 km<\/p>\n

Duration: 1h 40m<\/p>\n

Waymarking signs: Fair<\/p>\n

Circular route: Yes<\/p>\n

Difficulty: Hard<\/p>\n

Starting coordinates: N 42.402506 \/ W -7.5998128,836<\/p>\n

From the Boqueiri\u00f1o viewpoint, standing 600 m above the River Sil, we can see the magnificent Monastery of Santa Cristina on the opposite side of the canyon, in Ourense. We continue along the track for half a kilometre until reaching the spot known as Colado do Santo. From this small plateau, the “Eucalipto do M\u00e9dico<\/em>” path branches off to the right, beginning with a gentle descent that becomes steeper as we go. The first 400 m consist of scrubland, followed by an area of cork oaks and arbutus trees until we reach O Santo, an area once used for vineyards, but which is now oak woodland.<\/p>\n

Slightly further down, a path leads to Nogueira da Laxa, an area rich in vineyards, and to the vines of O Santo heading towards Souto Vello. You will also pass natural springs in an area of meadows.<\/p>\n

From this point, the route turns into a narrow trail with a steep descent. About a hundred metres further, we reach the spectacularly large and ancient eucalyptus tree we have been looking for. The tree is named after Don Gumersindo, a local doctor from the village of O Pacio, who planted it.<\/p>\n
