[QUOTE="jungleboy, post: 874610, member: 77691"] [B]Day 25: Ponte de Lima to Rubiães (~20km)[/B] Today was another (mostly) great day. Leaving Ponte de Lima, the trail was similar to yesterday, on country paths through vineyards with the early morning sunlight providing some magical views. Later, we walked through forest, alongside a river and past several waterfalls. It rained lightly a couple of times and it was a bit chilly, with temperatures between 13 and 16 degrees while we were walking (making those 39-degree days in Azinhaga seem like a lifetime ago!). Some highlights: [SPOILER="Vineyards in Light and Shadow"][ATTACH type="full"]83674[/ATTACH][/SPOILER] [SPOILER="Waterfall"][ATTACH type="full"]83675[/ATTACH][/SPOILER] [SPOILER="The Forest Trail"][ATTACH type="full"]83676[/ATTACH][/SPOILER] We didn’t find the 400m ascent to Alto da Portelo to be very steep or difficult. The descent was trickier because logging was taking place on the path as we were walking, so we had to wait several minutes to pass the machine and then had to clamber over several tree trunks that were blocking the entire trail. Rubiães seems like an unusual place to be so popular as an end-of-stage destination. The town is just strung along the through road and while there are quite a few albergues and other pilgrim accommodation options (more than listed in Gronze), there’s little else, so if you want to walk further, there’s nothing really keeping you here. [B]The municipal albergue in Rubiães is closed[/B] and we are staying at Ninho, paying €15/p for a three-bed dorm that we’ll have to ourselves. There’s only one other pilgrim here at the moment and we only saw a handful of others on the trail today. It’s hard to believe that tomorrow will be our last day of walking in Portugal! Only 135km to Santiago now. [/QUOTE]
