- ‘13,‘15,’18 SJP~Santiago
‘23 Porto~Santiago
Hello all
I’m beginning my planning for our upcoming Portuguese Camino. We will be leaving Porto on May 11th along the coast to Villa do Conde then to the central route to Santiago. 12 days +|-.
Our approximate itinerary is below. We are a group of 5, two couples in our 60’s and our 22 old niece. My wife and I did the Frances route pre Covid in 3 segments, last ending in 2018. We will be looking for private accommodations along the way. We’ve done the shared accommodations before and prefer our privacy. When we did the Camino Frances before, the only time we had room reservations was the initial start of a segment. It was the two of us, we’d leave early every morning and would decided along that days walk how far we were going and arrive at a village and secured a room easily.
Rest Eat Sleep Repeat.
My question to the forum is, is it sustainable on the Portuguese Camino and considering our dates of walking (5/11-5/23ish), to go without reserving nightly accommodations?
The goal is to keep our own pace. Winging it in a way. Keeping options open. Free spirit.
TIA
Bom Caminho
Buen Camino
Our flexible itinerary. Likely will be a rest day too. Tui possibly
