    Trailrunners on Camino Portuguese

    I walked from Porto in trail runners last year - altra lone peak 3.0. No problems, no need for hiking boots. I also walked the Camino Frances 2 years ago in trail runners. Really this isn’t mountain climbing, just walking.

    Camino Portuguese in the slow lane...

    I walked the central route in 17 stages, here is a link to my post. This is doable -- you will need some stages a bit longer though. https://www.caminodesantiago.me/community/threads/my-planned-stages-for-cp-central-any-advice-please.48953/#post-528828

    Camino Portuguese & Inglese

    Adding to what Jill said, if you are on Facebook there are some Facebook groups on the Camino and perhaps there you would be more likely to find people who have used tours.

    Camino Portuguese & Inglese

    I'm younger than you (only 71!) and am walking the Camino Portugués next month and doing my own booking. Part of the reason is to save money, also I want flexibility in case I need a shorter or longer day or want to stay someplace longer, I can make changes as needed. As to baggage transfers...

    Train Lisbon to Porto?

    I am flying to Lisbon and starting to walk from Porto after spending a few days in Lisbon. My thought was to take the train or bus, if I take the train to I need tickets in advance? Which train stations should I use? Thanks for the help!

    My planned stages for CP Central -- any advice Please

    Hi -- I am starting to walk the Camino Portuguese on September 25 and have tentative plans on where to stay. I am walking the Central Route. I am choosing not to walk the Coastal because I live on the ocean so ocean walking is my daily walk. I am looking for something different. Also, I am...

    Porto to SdC, on to Muxía, September October

    I have my plane tickets to walk from Porto starting the 25th of September. I think I will start with the coastal changing to the Central probably at Vila do Conde. Will there be other pilgrims this time of year? Will albergues be open? I would appreciate any advice about this. Thanks!!!

    Should I learn Portuguese or Spanish

    OK -- Learn Spanish! It is spoken in so many countries around the world. It is hard for adults to learn a language. I studied Spanish and French in school, and have studied Italian in Italy (was married to Italian.) A couple of years ago I decided to really focus on Spanish and will be...

    Rest days

    Thank you Stephen, pleased to hear you say this. I am not so much concerned about fitness just some thoughts about being alone if dogs come or I get lost, etc. I walked the Camino Frances last year with no problems, but of course there are a lot of people. Oh -- my name has turned confusing...

    2017 Brierly Guide CP

    Help!!! I am going crazy. In his 2017 guide Brierly is apparently covering various routes on the CP but his color coding is inconsistent (central route orange or blue?). He mentions a number of potential detours but the book isn't organized so I am keep track of what he is talking about. Is...
