Concello de Nigrán
Merendero Monteferro

 

The Monteferro picnic area is undoubtedly one of the most frequented picnic spots in Nigrán, a town near Vigo and part of the Rias Baixas as it is located on the Vigo Estuary. Situated at the highest point of the Monteferro peninsula, right where the paved road ends and adjacent to the Monument to the Universal Marina, this picnic area occupies a privileged position in Monteferro. From this point, you can enjoy impressive views towards the Estelas Islands, the Atlantic Ocean, and the coast of Baiona.

The picnic area has a large number of tables and stone benches and is located within a large grove, mostly pine trees. It has ample parking space, although on sunny weekends there may be high demand, possibly resulting in difficulties finding parking.

It is located in a special conservation area that includes this cape and islands in the municipality of Nigrán. This natural space participates in the European Natura 2000 Network project. From this point, you can take different hiking trails, all of them fantastic.
