Lugo Provincial Council Catamarans

River trips run by the Lugo Provincial Council (Diputación de Lugo) on the Sil canyon from the Ponte do Sil pier, in Monforte de Lemos, with a €9 ticket and compulsory online booking.

The Lugo Provincial Council (Diputación de Lugo) has two boat routes in the Ribeira Sacra: the Sil canyon route, from its Ponte do Sil pier in the municipality of Monforte de Lemos, and the Cabo do Mundo route on the Miño, from Belesar. In November 2026 only the Sil route is running: the Cabo do Mundo one is suspended until the end of the season.

How it works

Tickets are bought in advance on its booking website, and you must be at the pier at least 30 minutes before departure with your ID card or passport and, if you pay a reduced fare, the document that proves it. Children under 3 do not pay, but they need a ticket. Groups of 31 people or more have a separate price and book by phone or email.

What is included

A guided trip of about two hours through the most vertical part of the canyon, as far as the monastery of Santa Cristina de Ribas de Sil, and back. The pier has a cafeteria.
