Ride there from home: we find the shortest way to the loop and start the loop from there.
The ride
Roll out of Chantada and let the road carry you past the manor of Pazo de Vilar, then on to Pazo de San Pedro de Bembibre. The Encoro de Belesar lake opens up before you, and the Río Miño follows as you climb through 1280 m of elevation gain. It's all paved riding, and the loop brings you back to where you started.
