El Ganso ('The Goose') is a village in various states of ruin and restoration. Some houses have been beautifully rehabilitated; others are crumbling. The Cowboy Bar — decorated in an incongruous Wild West theme — has become a Camino institution, though opinions on the food vary.
The Ermita de Cristo de los Peregrinos, with its thatched roof, is one of the few remaining examples of traditional Maragato roofing. A couple of albergues operate in the village.
