    2023 Costs of Caminho Portugues Central (Ex Porto)

    Advice needed: Managing a large blister on the heel

    Thank you all so much for your responses! You're right - I'm sure I'm going to get more conflicting info! 🙈 was feeling quite desperate when I posted this!

    Advice needed: Managing a large blister on the heel

    I have seen conflicting info on threads and I am on day 7 but on the the Portuguese costal route staying in Baiona, skipping tomorrow and taking the bus to Vigo.
