Why choose the Sanabria Way?<\/h2>\n\n

\n The starting point for this route is the Zamora municipality of Granja\n de la Moreruela, the place chosen by the Order of Cistercians to build\n their first monastery on the Iberian Peninsula<\/strong>.\n Previously, this place was known as Santiago de Moreruela, reliable\n proof of its close connection with the Jacobean route. But not only\n the faithful followed this route, many travellers and traders used\n this ancient road to communicate points as far away as the centre of\n the peninsula with the north of Spain. They were also used as royal\n canyons and routes for merchants from all over the country, especially\n the well-known \u201cveredas\u201d, routes chosen by Galician farmers to descend\n to Castilla during the harvest season. It is for this reason that,\n along it, a multitude of hospitals and inns, as well as temples and\n monasteries, were built.\n <\/p>\n\n

\n There are\n two possibilities to continue to Santiago <\/strong>once in\n Galician territory. The shortest one goes\n through A Gudi\u00f1a and Laza<\/strong>, while the one that goes\n through Ver\u00edn<\/strong> adds some kilometres, being this one\n much more recommendable for cyclists because it runs mostly along the\n national road. The latter connects with the interior variant of the\n Portuguese Way, specifically in the border town of Chaves. Most of the\n route is well signposted, as it is one of the oldest and most historic\n routes of\n all the Ways leading to Santiago<\/a>.\n <\/p>\n <\/div>\n
