Ola to anyone doing the Camino Portugues. The route into Tomar has been changed so pilgrims don't have to spent so much time walking on the main road N-110.
After walking several kms beside the railway line from the bridge and past the Cafe O Ze, The Confraternity guide and John Brierley’s guide both tell you to go to the right and walk for several kms along the main road, the N-110. The yellow arrows point left and take you through much quieter roads back to the railway line with a pedestrian underpass which brings you to the N-110 at Capela S. Lourenco. This detour may be a bit longer than walking straight on the N-110, but the small section we did walk on that busy road from the Capela into Tomar was scary, and I was very grateful for the bypass.
