3rd Edition. More content, training & pack guides avoid common mistakes, bed bugs etc
If you go to the tourist office in Porto in Rua Dos Fenianos, near the main train station, they can give you very good updated information and maps, worth the stop!

and they are very kind too.
 
Thank you so much for everyone's help , I am going through all the use full information to get a rough plan together .The main thing I need to find is whether or not the Albergues are open , as we are starting around March 20th , I would imagine some might not have re opened after the winter shut down ? I normaly don't like to plan too much , but I am walking with a group this time so feel a responsibility to sort things out a bit . Thanks again , Roger .
 
The focus is on reducing the risk of failure through being well prepared. 2nd ed.
