Your legs will notice it early on: this is no flat final stage. Short climbs and steep descents follow one another, adding up to well over 700 metres of ascent. Even so, you never get far above the sea. Your breathing settles into the rhythm, and your mind is already half at the finish.
For well over six hours you walk along the rugged coast. Wind, rocks and the ocean, appearing again and again. All the days before this are in your legs, so you walk calmly, almost in silence. Then Fisterra comes into view, with the houses around the harbour and the water beyond. You walk into the village, let your rucksack slip from your shoulders and look out over the Atlantic Ocean. The route goes no further.
