Faro de Fisterra

Faro De Fisterra - North West Spain May 2016

Part of a tour of Spain and Portugal by Motorcycle. Typified by rocky coastline and beautiful sweeping beaches. Well worth a visit.
The trip was taken in the last 2 weeks of May 2016, the weather was very changeable, unseasonably so. On this day it was all good. I was riding a CB500x and filmed with a Sony FDR x1000v on Sony stock mounts. The little Honda was a great bike to do the trip on, more than up to the task. We covered around 3200 miles in 2 weeks and i can recommend compression socks and moto skiveez to aid in all day comfort. The bike in front is a Moto Guzzi 1200 NTX Stelvio ridden by an old friend who kindly invited me on one of his motorcycling adventures.

Places to see in ( Galicia - Spain ) Faro de Fisterra

The Cape Finisterre Lighthouse is an active lighthouse on Cape Finisterre, in the Province of A Coruña, on the northwestern coast of Galicia in Spain.

In Roman times it was believed to be the end of the known world. The name Finisterre, like that of Finistère in France, derives from the Latin finis terrae, meaning end of the earth. It is sometimes said to be the westernmost point of the Iberian Peninsula. However, Cabo da Roca in Portugal is about 16.5 kilometres (10.3 mi) further west and thus the westernmost point of continental Europe. Even in Spain Cabo Touriñán is farther west.

Monte Facho is the name of the mountain on Cape Finisterre, which has a peak that is 238 metres (781 ft) above sea level. A prominent lighthouse is at the top of Monte Facho. The seaside town of Fisterra is nearby. The Artabri were an ancient Gallaecian Celtic tribe that once inhabited the area.

Cape Finisterre has some spectacular beaches, including O Rostro, Arnela, Mar de Fora, Langosteira, Riveira, and Corbeiro. Many of the beaches are framed by steep cliffs leading down to the Mare Tenebrosum (or dark sea, the name of the Atlantic in the Middle Ages).

Cabo Finisterra - Cape Finisterre - Fisterra, España - Spain

End of the Camino a Fisterra, Jacobean pilgrimage. Fin del Camino de Santiago. Ende des Jakobsweg.

Alane's Camino, from France to Finisterre Fisterra, Galicia Spain Medium

My Camino, from St Jean Pied de Port, France to Finisterre (or Fisterra) Spain, which is the town at the Atlantic coast. It is a 560 mile walk across Spain. An amazing journey of hiking daily, with intention, often referred to as a pilgrimage. For me, it was a spiritual walk, walking underneath the Milky Way, following the stars. Others (pilgrims) resonate with the religious aspect of it, with the 500 mile marker being at the cathedral in Santiago. No matter the intention or reason for the walk by each person, persons of all different countries come together for this walk, with respect for our differences and similarities, kindness and compassion for each individual's journey. People complete the walk by foot, bike, horse, etc. Such a unique experience.
