    Lires to Finisterre (Coastal)

    Upon leaving Lires this morning headed towards Finisterre I was faced with the option of taking a more scenic coastal route. I had no idea this even existed and was simply going to continue following the regular yellow waymarks. However instead I ended up following the green arrows once upon...

    Muxia or Finisterre first?

    We are in Oliveira at the albergue staying overnight and have about 5km till we reach the split for Muxia or Finisterre. I'd originally planned to walk to Muxia first then along the coast to Finisterre. But looking at the map the gradient looks really steep out of Muxia and not something my...

    Fatima/Pope = No Ferry From Caminha till Sunday.

    We are currently in Caminha on the coastal route and we were hoping to catch the ferry over the river Minhos into Spain heading for A Guarda. We've been told that due to the Popes visit to Fatima here in Portugal all ferry crossings are suspended until Sunday. Not sure of the reasoning...

    Private Albergue (Searching for Julian)

    I stayed in a private albergue on the way to Finisterre run by this man called Julian. His hospitality was exceptional and I would like to stay there again this year when I walk the Camino from Lisbon to Finisterre with my wife. All that I can remember is that it was before we reached...

    Camping Shops in Lisbon (Lisboa)

    Does anyone have any information for reasonably priced Camping/Outdoor Gear Shops in Lisbon? I'm flying into Lisbon in May from Liverpool and I travel light on the plane to avoid excess baggage charges. So I don't travel with things like tent pegs, or walking poles. These are things though...

    Portuguese Wanderers

    Good evening (UK). My wife and I walked the Portuguese Way 2 years ago in July 15. It was my first Camino and my wife's second, as she walked the French Way literally 6 days after we'd met and had our very first date. We decided to do the Portuguese Way for our honeymoon, flying into Porto...
