    4-5 days Camino Portugues?

    No I didn't.. We stayed at Tamel, which was a very nice beautiful albergue!! The next day I met a girl from Brasil and she wanted to stay in Fernanda's, but it was already full. She said the woman was in a very bad mood, so she didn't feel very welcome anyway. It can happen.

    Urgent.. Sleeping bag needed between Porto-Valenca?

    Hello Thank you for all the advice. I took my old sleeping bag and I was very lucky I did. I stayed in Tamel where were only blankets, in Ponte de Lima no blankets and in Rubiaes were only blankets. It was a bit hot so I would suggest bringing a very light sleeping bag. Buen camino!

    Bus or Train back Valenca to Porto?

    Hello! Just to share with you: it was very easy to take the train back from Valenca to Porto. There are a lot of trains each day and no reservation is needed. It took me almost 3hours but it was beautiful and safer than the crazy Portugese drivers.. Buen camino and thank you for the help!

    Bus or Train back Valenca to Porto?

    Thank you for the reply. I will take my chances with the train. As the 25th of may is a religion holiday day ('Pinksteren' is 50 days after Easter) in Belgium I thought this was also the case in Portugal (and maybe very busy on the train). But it appears not to be? Good day

    4-5 days Camino Portugues?

    Hello, I would like to walk 4-5 in days in may of the Camino Portugues with a Spanish friend. We don't know which part is the most beautiful, does anyone has a suggestion?
