Hi, Clach,I have Bruno diary, thanks.
I don't like that I have to pay wikiloc now to see the trails.
Tomorrow I plan to walk from Tondela to Farminhao
Today 27km from to Golegà and it was incredibly hot! Last Saturday was raining and cold all over Portugal, and today I am happy I skipped this section and walked trilho de areias instead, I can't imagine Ribatejo in summer. Also, quite few bugs on the fields between Vale de Figueira and Pombalinho
Yes, I downloades the gps tracks 3 days ago and when I try to upload on Wiloc they asked me for money.
I have GPS on my phone, offline maps and a Portugues Sim if I get lost, I will do without wikiloc tracks.
The plan for tomorrow is bus Golega to Entroncameno, then train to Coimbra and another bus to Tondela, then should be 15km walk to Farminhao.
This morning I managed to get lost in the wood 2,5km after Farminhao. After you cross a bridge there are 4 paths and no arrows. I took the left one, walked 300mt and after 2 more forks without signs, I checked google maps and while I was getting close to a road, it looked like I was going on opposite direction.
So I came back at the fork and took the right one. And afte many twist and turns, zigs and zags, I left sweaty an hour later after seeing many forks and no more arrows.
After this epic fail, I finally left the wood and stoped in Fail village (yes, Fail it's the name of the village, quiet appropriatefor breakfast.
Nobody knew how to get on the Camino, so I walked the N2 until Viseu, about 9km. Luckily little traffic and enough space on the sideways.
I managed to walk 15km and made it to Viseu Libray where I am now, catching rain only for the last km.
I tried to contact the Albergue in Viseu without success, so I'm trying now to sleep in Almargem.
I will wait for the rain to stop, although the forecast says it will keep pouring until 17-18
There are some threads in the CPI sub-forum that can help you out a bit, one in particular is here: https://www.caminodesantiago.me/com...ugues-interior-in-november.44123/#post-457804
Let us know how it goes, this is a Caminho that I definitely want to walk! I wonder what explains the shutdown of the web page, maybe they are doing an upgrade.
Bom caminho, Laurie
