Wow this ancient fern forest! Get your hotel people to arrange a taxi to send and pick you up here! It’s about 6km from the centro to the monastery, plus photography, approximately a relaxed 2.5-3.5 hours ONE-WAY (x2 if you plan to walk back out). Taxi can pick you up from the road nearby the monastery. Don’t forget to explore the ruins nearby. pics of terrain, etc

The nature is beautiful and it's a really nice walk. BUT people working at the front office were not helpful at all, in a way that they did not gave us the best advice or suggestion, starting from parking to what to do in regards of walk and or bus. I would recommend taking a bus to the monestery and walking back (8km) and I do not even work there. These girls are disaster and would give them 1 star.
Worth the walk. It takes you about 8 kilometres to reaches the monastery. The walk is very pleasant. You can cross the briges to access a more seculated path way, away from the passing bus every 30 minutes. The view is absolutely spectacular and you can see some deers and otters if you're lucky. Most of the visitors are Galician or pilgrims.
Beautiful countryside, well marked trails, easy to difficult walking terrain. Steep sides, long waterfalls and fast flowing rivers. Thoroughly recommended
There are several trail that you can follow. When I went it was off season and quiet, I imagine in summer it's full of people and you can do more activities. On my trip there were several bird species, I've crossed over streams, climbed hills. Because it was raining you could smell the fragnance of trees. I would definitelly recommend it.
