    Improvising one's accommodations - is that crazy talk?

    I leave next Friday and do not plan on booking ahead. I prefer to just see where my feet take me. Although last year on the CF, once we hit Sarria and the hordes of people, we booked ahead but Im not sure it was entirely necessary but more for peace of mind. Really, I like to just see how I...

    Camino Portugues May 2017

    I download the wise pilgrim but it doesnt really cover the coastal route. I am leaving next Thursday so probably too late for the book. Ill try to find the book myself but I appreciate the offer. I am excited and know that the nerves will go away after I have been lost at least once...hahaha...

    Solo female walking Camino Portugese May

    my plan is to take my running shoes and my hiking sandals rather than my hiking boots which I think would be overkill for the Portuguese. I start from Porto May 20, staying in Matosinhos May 21

    Camino Portugues May 2017

    thanks. Brierley's book actually gives no descriptions for the coastal route, just a list of tourism offices, hostels, etc. no directions.

    Lainey, did you have any problem with finding the route? I just was reading the Brierley book and it said that the coastal route was well waymarked.

    Coastal route to Caminha then to Velanca

    Albertinho, so coming out of Caminha do you have to walk along the N13? It seems like a very busy road but I dont see another way out of town in that direction. I am google earthing it and thats what I see. I am assuming that there are signs or camino path signs? thanks.

    Coastal route to Caminha then to Velanca

    So I think my plan is to take the coastal route from Porto to Caminha and then go from Caminha to Velanca to meet up with the central route. That way I get a good taste of both. If the weather is bad on the coast Ill go inland at Vila de Conde but Im hoping the weather is great. My question...

    Starting my camino May 20, getting excited.

    Starting from Porto and plan to walk to Matosinhos after arrival and then spend the night and walk up to Vila Do Conde. Still deciding whether to turn to the central route at that point. Since I am walking alone I would like to meet others but I also dont want to fight for beds every night...
