    Breaking Up the Walk from Porto to Vila do Conde

    Last year I stayed in Porto for two nights. I walked to Matosinhos and took the “metro” back, without my pack, as a warmup. Than the day afterwards I took the bus out and walked to Vila do Conde. Worked very well.

    Caminha to Tui link

    I walked it last year. Along the ecopista, and split it in two. And found it a nice but a bit boring walk. I stayed in the Pousada de Juventude. It was clean and simple. Rooms with 2 and 2 bunks in them. You can see my comment in the link. Also others experiences...

    Which route between Caminha and Tui?

    I walked the river ecopista and split it in two days staying in Vila Nova de Cerveira (got a stamp at the library 😍 ). It was a lovely walk. A lot of shade and nice totally flat path. But boring, and nothing open along the route. I was even contemplating renting a bike and biking Caminha to Tui :p

    I loved it! And no, the place we tried this year did not impress and I do not remember last years gelato. So looking for suggestions myself 😂

    Day 15/16 O Milladoiro - Santiago I started early so that I could get some km done before my fellow pilgrims caught up to me. But walking in pitch dark, all alone, made me sooo fast that I got in to Santiago in record speed. That way I could be the welcoming committee for the rest of the group...

    Ok, the updates kind of did not get priority. But here is the rest: Day 9/16 Tui - O Porrino First start in the dark. But a lovely day through some woodlands and also some nice little villages. This looks more like the Camino Frances I am used to. Day 10/16 O Porrino - Redondela Now the up...

    Day 6/16 Carreco - Caminha The day I had an adventure along the Litoral 😂 A bit remote, but lovely. I had told myself I could jump on a train along the way if it became to much for me, but I arrived in Caminha nicely. Stayed at Bom Caminha and had both an amazing massage from Victor and a really...

    I think shorts are good! Nice to have that one longer pair as it gets chilly in the evenings. I am switching in to the central tomorrow. Will be interesting with the heat.

    A lot to look forward to. The Camino is lovely. Very hot though. They say it’s 22 degrees but out in the open with no shade it is warmer.

    Day 3/16 Vila do Conde - Fao Nice and relaxing walk. Not to much to rapport 😊Stayed in lovely Spot hostel and enjoyed a meal at a local restaurant with pilgrims that just hit right into my heart. Got the Camino feeling! Day 4/16 Fao - Anha Long day for me! It was tough on my feet and hips...

    Day 2/16 Matosinhos to Vila do Conde Now I remember how my Camino body feels 😂 I am in pain and I am stiff as a stick. Tomorrow it will loosen up! It’s just how it is… I looove this!

    Day 1/16 Porto to Matosinhos Lovely walk - I love watching people living in the city going about their daily life. It was hot and humid, so nice to just have a short day. I am back a my hostel, The House of Sandeman, which I just can’t recommend enough.

    Day 0/16 Porto isn’t shy! The perfect energy that I needed. Clapping for the sunset at Jardim do Morro was such a lovely experience. Slow morning at the House of Sandeman before starting my walk.

    Thank you Thomas. I will try it out. I can always switch to the central if this does not suit me. How far you along now?

    Another serendipitous moment - I found out that a lady I walked with almost 2 weeks on the Frances last year is doing the Portuguese two days behind me now. We haven't planned this, we didn't talk about it at that, it is Camino magic! She will probably catch up to me since I am slow, if not, we...
