About
The fortress of the Castro was built in 1665 during a war in front of Portugal (1640-1668) trying to protect the city from the continuous attacks coming from the British navy allies of Portugal. The defensive system of the city consisted in Castro and San Sebastián fortress and the city wall (now disappear).

Fantastic landscape, but we have a problem with access to there because park under it was closed. However view makes an impression.
Went here when on Mediterranean cruise. Vigo is a lovely place and this park is well worth a visit. Excellent views of Vigo. Not too difficult to get there.
Much easier to get to park from other end, coming from the Monumento a los Caballos (horse statue) then the side that feels like hundreds of steps. Good amount of hiking but very nice areas to check o
