    Porto to Santiago coastal route by bicycle with camping

    I did the reverse of this trip in 2019. By bike but didnt camp and at 50klms per day approx took 5 days i think from santiago to porto. Slept in Albergues. Last 20 klms got metro back into Porto as traffic bad and was going down with a flu. From Tui the coastal road was beautiful. Bon camino.
