How to reach Castro  Menoras:

Along the "Rías Baixas" (A57) motorway, from Vigo-Baiona, exit No.5 (Sabarís).

At the marketplace of Sabaris, follow the sign towards Belesar 2.8 km further up, then follow the signpost to Medialdea (to the right). When seeing the church at the end of the street, just at the bus stop, turn to the right and drive along the street Rúa Portameán. Keep going straight up to the top. Once there, you are in a cross with some communal paths (you can see straigth downwards the bowling place). As you are in that cross, you take right along a sand path up to the end, where you see our house, made of granit and yellow painted. (See Map and sketch)
