Holiday apartment in Noalla: Coast, culture and trails

Noalla between coast and cultural heritage

Noalla combines a distinctive coastal landscape with impressive traces of the past. The coastal zone features beaches and rocky cliffs and lies within the Natura 2000 network. Punta de A Lanzada and its surroundings are also part of this network because of their ecological and scenic value. Those choosing a holiday apartment in Noalla therefore find a place where nature, coastal scenery and cultural themes come together for different types of holiday.

Trails between the town centre and A Lanzada

A 1.2-kilometre section of footpath along the EP-9212 connects the town centre of Noalla with A Lanzada beach. This route establishes a clear spatial link between the town and the coast. For planning your trip, its length provides a useful point of reference when comparing different routes and ideas for day trips.

A Lanzada archaeological site

The A Lanzada archaeological site comprises a necropolis and a castro. The castro at the archaeological site dates from the 8th century BC. The graves in the necropolis date from the 3rd to 4th century AD.

Religious buildings with distinctive details

The Ermita de Nosa Señora de A Lanzada is a late Romanesque religious building dating from the 12th century. Inside, a miniature ship hangs from the ceiling and is associated with the protection of sailors. The Church of Santo Estevo de Noalla also preserves Romanesque architectural remains. It also features a crucifixion relief and an 18th-century bell tower. These buildings add their own distinctive accents between the coast, the town centre and the archaeological past.

Different trail lengths for planning your day

The Sendero azul mágico de A Lanzada is 3 kilometres long. Together with the 1.2-kilometre section of footpath along the EP-9212, this provides two different trail lengths to take into account when finding your way around and comparing possible excursions. This allows the coastal zone, A Lanzada and Noalla to be considered according to your preferred focus on physical activity.
