Camino Muxía: Dumbría - Muxía
After completing the Camino Portuguese Coastal, I wanted to visit Muxía to fully complete my journey, having already been to Finisterre. Instead of walking from Santiago again, I took a bus to Dumbría, about 23 km from Muxía, arriving around 11 AM.
The weather was cloudy when I got off the bus, but as soon as I started walking, it poured. Throughout the hike, the weather kept switching between sun and rain, so I kept taking my poncho on and off. The upside was seeing lots of rainbows.
When I arrived in Muxía, the sun finally stayed out. I had planned to get my Muxía certificate, but since it was Sunday, the office was closed. I’ll take care of that first thing tomorrow. In the meantime, I explored the town, visiting the zero-kilometre marker, Santuario da Virxe da Barca, and the lighthouse.
