as soon as you leave Caminha over a bridge ,you head for Vila Nova de Cerveira.
after about two kms there comes a sign ECOPISTA. If you follow the signs you will follow the river as close as possible. The common path is about 500 meters more inland and follows the road through small villages and hamlets. There you’ll find a church foryour stamp , your coffee and a sandwich .I prefered the Ecopista and once or twice changed for a coffee.
In Vila Nova de Cerveira is a kind of albergue with several rooms for two or four people
Nice restaurants around .
after Vila Nova you follow the Ecopista and the Minho river again in the direction of Valença do Minho untill you arrive in the neighborhood of Valença. very pleasant walk
Once in Valença first you will meet the albergue but are are several places to stay .

Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.

It leads through villages and hamlets
There live people so there is traffic, runs a train and there are some railwaycrossings
The distance between Caminha and Valença is about 30 kms. You walk into south eastern direction
3rd Edition. More content, training & pack guides avoid common mistakes, bed bugs etc
Albertinho, I appreciate how responsive you are on the forum! Thanks for all your help.
For anyone considering this route, I can suggest Casa Gwendoline hostel in addition to the Pousada de Juventude (both in Vila Nova de Cerveira); it is small and family-run, with private rooms as well as a small dorm.
