Hello, fellow pilgrims! We are going on our first Camino following the Camino Portugues from Baiona (last 126km) in May 2019! We are currently looking at starting on May 11th. Any tips are most welcome!
Beautiful old town Baiona. At the tourist Information nearby the castle and the harbour get your first stamp. The castle is very interesting to walk around
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.
Vigo can be difficult to get into - I always take a local bus from the suburbs.
Easy enough to leave and enjoy the Senda da Agua, with great views of the Ria.
Looking for segmenting advice on the Portuguese Costal between Porto and Vila do Conde. We originally considered starting in Matosinhos walking straight to Vila do Conde. That's ~23 KM. On paper...
Hello beautiful people. I decided and chose Portuguese route for my first Camino.
I’ll come from Kyiv to Paris, and then find a way to get to Porto. Maybe I’ll take a flight.
I do my last...
Hi everyone,
Just looking for some advice whether you think it would be better to start in Vigo or Tui?
We have previously walked Sarria to Santiago in 5 days so hoping to do something similar...
Greetings from Porto! It is absolutely gorgeous here today and I am sorely tempted to linger a few days to enjoy it all … but the Way awaits and I plan to start walking from Matosinhos on Sunday...
