Camino Portuges vs. Camino Ingles

Time of past OR future Camino
Ingles, Portugues, or Sanabres 2016
My wife and I are considering these two routes (CP from Tui to Santiago, CI from Ferrol) for 2016. Can anyone advise as to which one has less walking on hazardous/busy roads? Also, is one to be preferred generally over the other? If so, why? Many thanks!

I walked both . Depending on your condition .the caminho Portugues is easier to walk. On the Ingles you'll face some nasty hills.
 
Albertinho is right but I must add that the Ingles is very beautiful in spite of the hills. I walked it during Easter and one morning I walked out of Pontedeume and up in the hills and I walked above the clouds that covered a valley. It was a moment of beauty. And hills are good! And there is usually a cold beer waiting somewhere after the hill.
