Take your time today, as the first section is quite steep. Your reward sits in O Cebreiro, an ancient town with round, thatched roof buildings. If you've made an early start, it's not unusual to see fog blanket the surrounding area like a sea of cotton. The end of the day will be a descent to the town of Triacastela.
