New Albergue in Lisbon

[Rodrigo Cerqueira]

Good News for pilgrims

There is a new albergue in Lisbon, it was created by a group of Lisbon pilgrims that love the Caminho "Movimento Caminhos Peregrinos".
Its a small albergue but its very useful for pilgrims that arrive by plane in Lisbon because its close to the airport.


Address:

Rua 18 nº 16 Bairro da Encarnação, 1800-164 Lisboa

Since leaving Portugal on the the 10th March it has been so difficult finding accomodation the Albergue in Alpriarte was closed which forced us to walk on to Alverca everything there is so far off the Camino we went looking for the Albergue or hostel but could not find it We were not prepared to walk extra kms to find them closed and have to walk back. Our feet were so sore and it was raining we decided to go back to the train station and caught the train to Vilafranca De Xira and stayed in a lovely hostel.
All Albergues are closed but we have found pensions/ hostels. Even the Albergue in Santarém was closed today.

Dear Trude Its winter and the weather its terrible for humans but good for the earth that needs the rain... So its possible that some albergues are closed becuse there aren't almost no pilgrims doing the caminho.
My advice its for you prepare your caminho and call 2 days before to check if the albergues are open.
In Santarem there are 3 places that usually host pilgrims. Please check http://www.caminho.com.pt/onde_ficar_e.html

Bom Caminho.

Hi Rodrigo thanks for the encouragement and advice I always walk this time of the year. Last year Via de la Plata. This one is easy walking but the hardest one I have done. I forgot to mention we got attacked by dogs about 15 mins after spending a lovely night at Quinta Da Burra, (Paula is exceptional). I think it was Quinta Das Varandas it was very scarey and my friend has a hole in his trousers and a hole in his wallet that saved him getting bitten. There was about 3 big light coloured dogs.
Then today we left Santarém when we got to the bottom the Police had closed the road and would not let us through so they sent us up this road, after walking 7 Kms to end up the other side near the train station we threw in the towel and caught the train to Tomar with about 4 other pilgrims. This one is definately testing me but tomorrow’s another day.......

THank you!
I'll be arriving in Lisbon by the plane...
Does this albergue sell pilgrim's passport as well? I'm planning to get in once I get to Lisbon but if I head straight to the albergue without going to the city centre, I might not have a credential.....

Hi Rodrigo! Sorry to hear about the closure of your association! Do you have any idea if this albergue in Lisbon is still operational? Thanks!
