Nature · Narón, Ferrol, A Coruña

Image of Narón, not of the place itself.

A 367-metre-high hill inland from the municipality, dotted with Bronze Age burial mounds; from its summit one looks out over the Ría de Ferrol and the valley of the Río Grande de Xuvia, which separates Narón from Neda. It is the highest point in the municipality of Narón, in the parish of Sedes, and several rivers rise there that feed the Encoro das Forcadas reservoir and the Lagoa da Frouxeira. On its summit, a group of sixteen burial mounds known as Os Montiños da Moura lines the path of the route to Santo André de Teixido. The hill today combines farming and livestock operations, pine and eucalyptus forestry plantations, and a wind farm installed in recent years on its summit, alongside telecommunications antennas.
