O Codesal rises to 1,334 metres and is located in the municipality of Lobeira, near the Serra de Laboreiro, in a mountainous area closely linked to the Portuguese border. This peak forms part of the major mountain ranges that enclose the Baixa Limia to the north and provides an excellent landmark for appreciating the scale of the mountain system surrounding the park.
Its landscape is dominated by open terrain, rocky outcrops and vegetation adapted to high-altitude conditions. From the Nosa Señora do Xurés viewpoint, O Codesal appears as one of the most distant points in the panorama, helping visitors appreciate the landscape on a broader scale and visually connecting Lobios with Lobeira and the Serra de Laboreiro, one of the great mountain areas of the “raia seca”, the historic land border between Galicia and Portugal.
