    LIVE from the Camino Walking the Torres Now, Tips for new starters! - May 2023

    The old stone trail up the hill climbing into Trancoso is a killer at the end of a long stage! I never had the energy to explore either but accommodation at Dom Dinis was excellent & they pointed me in the direction of a soul boosting restaurant! 😎

    Torres....Great memories!

    Attaching some photos from a Spanish magazine Luis Quintales (professor University of Salamanca & instigator of the re-birth of this route) presented me in 2016 on the commencement of my walk. The 2 Maps of the MANY routes are very interesting. For those interested in the Camino Torres, it is...

    New albergue on the Caminho de Torres (Moimenta da Beira - Portugal).

    Excellent to see some great improvements to this camino. Thanks for posting amsimoes. However this is also close by Moimenta de Biera & the .......Residencial Pico do Meio Dia Which i found to be excellent for pilgrim food & accommodation & not expensive. I can think of a number of other areas...

    Great work Amancio to do this for fellow pilgrims and to your friend for his notes. well done! The beauty of this camino for me was ..... there is no detailed guidebook to explain every single turn in the path and having to communicate in different language with the locals regarding the...

    A quieter Camino last 12 months anyone?

    Have read a lot of "noise" on these pages recently. Just wondering if anyone has looked for a much quieter path & done Camino Torres in last 12 months? Would love to hear some comments if you have. Photo taken in Salamanca 2016 with bust of Diego de Torres Vilaroel (who undertook the original...

    Someone with a fresh experience from the camino Torres ?

    Yes there are some arrows and it was always heartening to see them ... but : 1) They are not regular and some are very weathered & difficult to see, 2) In some areas they are non existent. As I said before you can not follow this Camino by the "arrows" alone
  20. RodlaRob

    Someone with a fresh experience from the camino Torres ?

    As I said in the very beginning of this thread ...... don't rely on the arrows till you approach Guimaraes.
