The Toxa River Bridge is located in the municipality of Silleda, crossing this tributary of the Deza River, which rises in the lands of Forcarei. As it flows through the area, the Toxa River creates a scenic riverside environment, surrounded by riparian vegetation where alders, willows and oak trees predominate. Although modest in size, the bridge connects several nearby settlements and serves as a local route between neighbouring areas, blending naturally into the river landscape.
In the parish of Pazos, upstream from the bridge, the Toxa River forms the well-known Fervenza do Toxa waterfall, one of the most remarkable waterfalls in Galicia, known for its height and the natural surroundings that frame it. This waterfall is a significant landscape landmark and a popular attraction for hikers and visitors seeking to enjoy the scenery and connect with nature.
The bridge and its surroundings also provide a pleasant route for walkers and cyclists, offering views of the riverbed, small rapids and pools, as well as the riparian flora and fauna. The presence of the bridge, combined with the river landscape of the Toxa, makes this spot an especially attractive place to discover the natural and cultural heritage of the municipality.
