Hello! I have changed my Camino from the CF, which I did in 2014, to the Portuguese route, starting September 2nd from Lisbon. I wanted to try something different and I am excited about my change! Hopefully, I am planning a stop at Casa Fernanda! I have planned 28 days from Lisbon to SdC. I am looking forward to the new adventure!

Hi. I start walking from Porto on the 14th September. I wondered how long it would take to walk to Matoshinos . I am thinking about going to Mass at Catedral Se at 11.

 

[Long Way to Tipperary]

Starting from Barcelos on 16th Sept as far as Casa Fernanda (DG) and only God knows after that. Ponte de Lima seems too close and Rubiàes too far for the following day. Any advice?

I’m in Porto now (dog sitting)!
I plan to start The Camino from Porto September 10th. Excited, but not a light traveler!! If you see me passed out somewhere, drag me to next alburgue please!
Hit me up if you start before then. I’m in a little fly by the river! We can take “Sunshine” for a walk!

 

[santanico]

I'm flying from Norway to Porto 13.sept and start walking at 14.sept.
Buen Camino

Starting to walk from Porto on September 10 on Senda Litoral first couple of days then on to Santiago using coastal and/or central where it fits

You will love Porto!! Make sure you do the “hop on, hop off” bus tour around city and the boat cruise up and down the river is great too!

I’m going to do the Coastal and probably the “Espiritual” leg also, then on to Santiago. I want to do half the Spain route, but I have to go to Gran Canaria for 2 weeks in between

 

[Wandalina]

Starting in Porto on the 19th alone...First Camino a mix of excitement and a bit of fear

Seven days in September

I have seven days which have popped up free in my diary and am going to fly to Oporto on 19 Sept and start walking north.

My idea (not a fixed plan) is:

· to walk by the seaside as far as Vila do Conde
· switch to the coastal route via Barcelos/Ponte de Lima/Rubiaes as far as Tui
· BUS to Pontevedra
· to walk the Variante Espiritual and boat to Padron

Although my purpose is contemplative and spiritual & I hope to attend mass in Santiago before flying home, I am not looking for a Compostela.

Advice or comment my route would be welcome.

My regards
Peter

 

[Globalkerry]

Sounds like a great plan...I’m starting it in a couple of days! Great weather over here in Porto!

Arriving in Porto on September 18th, walking to Vila do Conde on the 19th and then join the central route.
