Beginning in Vilarinho/porto

Hi All, we are beginning our walk tomorrow from Porto (outside). We are a little limited for time so would like to begin at Vilarinho. The train out to Vilarinho takes us to a place called Cuca. Does anyone know if this is close to the trail? In the book Vilarinho looks like a town on google maps it looks like a area. Can’t seem to find information. We would really appreciate thoughts. Thank you. Kaye

Hi kaye..my suggestion would be to catch the train to Barcelos, which takes 46 minutes and costs 5 euro+ and then the bus to Ponte de Lima which is 50 mins & costs 5 euro.
You could then enjoy the atmosphere of Ponte de Lima which is a beautiful small town. This will save you some of your precious time.
My wife & I are from Melbourne & did the walk from Ponte de Lima to Santiago a few years ago and thoroughly enjoyed it.
Be safe & enjoy your time. Beun Camino.
Alain.

I would like to walk the river route in Tui next month. I can see on google maps exactly where it starts, but it seems a bit overgrown. Has anybody used this route this year or last year...
Hello, my friend of 50+ years and I are on our first Camino walk. We are looking for: 1) safe, comfortable hostels in Lisbon; 2) stages from Lisbon to Porto (via Tomar) in about 16 days...
Hi I have searched everywhere to see if there is a luggage service from Lisbon to Porto. I know there is from Porto to Santiago, but Lisbon ???. Thanks for any info.
