A Pobra do Brollón has exceptional natural resources because it occupies two very different territories that give it a great personality.
On the one hand, it is part of the Ribeira Sacra, which necessarily means wine and its terraced vineyards. In the area of the municipality bathed by the Sil, the banks fall towards the river, creating perfect images of symbiosis between man and nature. The parish of Vilachá de Salvador is the most representative of this type of landscape, which is complemented by the century-old wineries. Small stone buildings grouped in the same environment that on the first weekend of May host the traditional Wine Fair. A must-see for anyone who wants to enjoy wine in a natural setting where stone is the protagonist.
The municipality's wine-growing tradition is complemented by the tradition as mountain municipality. A Pobra do Brollón has large mountain areas that are covered in snow in winter, only to be filled with greenery and water when spring arrives. Mountain villages such as Parada de Montes transport the traveler to the past and offer important information about how a village was built and configured to cope with inclement weather.
Centennial groves dominated by dry-land trees, albarizas scattered on the mountain slopes and paths and streams scattered everywhere complete a natural spectacle that offers a thousand different faces depending on the time of year.
To get to know A Pobra do Brollón you have to come with time, without rushing, to allow yourself to get lost and discover small surprises at every step that tell us about the past and a way of life in harmony with nature. The best antidote to the fast-paced times.
