Services

Olveiroa is defined by its horreos -- roughly fifty of them, lining the streets and fields in one of the densest concentrations per capita in Galicia. These granite-and-wood granaries, raised on mushroom-shaped stone pillars to keep out rodents, are the most visible expression of Galician agricultural tradition, and here they comfortably outnumber the human residents.

Two bar/restaurants serve the village. Of the two, As Pias is the recommended choice.

Pay attention leaving town: the camino turns left before reaching the road. This is an easy turn to miss. From here it's mostly uphill all the way through Hospital and beyond, leveling out when you reach The Great Divide.

The Camino:

The camino cuts a straight line through town but NOTE: at the edge of town the camino turns left BEFORE ever getting to the road. This is an easy turn to miss.

It is mostly uphill from here all the way to Hospital and beyond, leveling out only a bit when you get to The Great Divide.
