Guides about
The Finisterre lighthouse is about 65 km from Laxe, just over 1 hour by car, so it makes a perfect one-day trip. Set off mid-morning, have lunch in the town of Fisterra and stay for sunset at the cape, the "end of the world" of the Camino. You can combine it with Muxía or the Ézaro waterfall.
The Camiño dos Faros is a roughly 200 km, 8-stage coastal trail linking Malpica to Fisterra along the sea. Laxe sits right in the middle of the route: it is the end of stage 3 (from Ponteceso, ~25 km) and the start of stage 4 to Arou (~20 km), one of the most spectacular, with Laxe lighthouse, Soesto, Traba and the Penedos.
Based in Laxe you can see the best of the Costa da Morte in 3 days: day 1 the beaches of Laxe and Soesto plus the Borneiro hillfort; day 2 Camariñas, Muxía and the Camiño dos Faros; day 3 Fisterra and the Ézaro waterfall. Everything is under 1 h 20 by car.
