Almost at the exit of the town in the direction of Trabadelo, the route deviates to the right to join a track that takes us to the top of the Cuatro Caminos hill (1,262 m). On the other side of the hill, a twisting descent follows, with the path increasingly sunken between blunt mountain ranges covered with heather and regenerated oak. This section ends in Cantejeira, where you exit onto the road that gives access to the town to extend the descent to Balboa, the end of this stage and the route.
