Estrada (also A Estrada) is a municipality of Pontevedra in Galicia in northwestern Spain, 15 miles southeast of Santiago de Compostela. Estrada is the chief town of a densely-populated mountainous district; its industries are agriculture, stockbreeding, and the manufacture of linen and woolen cloth. Timber from the mountain forests is conveyed from Estrada to the Ulla River, 4 miles north, and thence floated down to the sea ports on Arosa Bay. There are mineral springs at Estrada and at Caldas de Reyes, 11 miles west-southwest.
