Fatima with a Wheelchair

World Youth Day. Camino to Fatima
Any advice is helpful. Thank you.
We will be in Lisbon for World Youth Day in August 23. Our group of 15 young Adults would like to walk for 3-4 days and arrive at Fatima.
One of the attendees uses crutches and a wheelchair. We will be slow walkers
Should we walk from Nazare to Fatima, Tomar to Fatima or Satarem to Fatima?
Would we be in the city or on paths? (If we are on paths inaccessible to a wheelchair, can we take a taxi to the next spot?)
Is there lodging for a group?

We are very excited about this mini-Camino. I hope it encourages them to do a full journey later.

We did the Camino de Fatima in 2016
we walked with the local pilgrims (Portuges). I dont know exactly know all of your general physical capabilities plus the fact that you have someone in wheelchair. It was mostly road-walking with very few trail walking. The locals had a van following them with all of their belongings. I would definitely recommend that you book all your accommodations especially that you will be attending the WYD. It took us 2 days from Santarem. God Bless and Ultreia!
