Senda Litoral - profile?

[JohnMcM]

Hello everyone,

Later this month I'll be walking the Senda Litoral (and perhaps the Variante Espiritual) before getting onto the Camino Ingles.

For lots of reasons my training since June this year has been 'minimal'.

I know the Senda Litoral pretty much follows the coast-line to the North from Porto.

I know the Camino Ingles has hilly sections, some not too bad, some a little more demanding. I'm hoping the Senda Litoral will help me get ready for the Ingles.

A question for those that know the Senda Litoral if I may.

How would you describe the elevation profile of the Senda Litoral?

Thanks in anticipation of any replies.

Buen (past, present and future) Camino(s)

It's pretty flat...there's one steep climb before Baiona from Mougas to Baredo another one to cross the Bridge at Ponte Sebastiao near Antas...check out my mate's maps which have all the profiles see an example below http://www.caminador.es/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/CA01.SL-ACC.-PORTO-POVOA-Guiax2.pdf

Excellent. I had forgotten about Luis' maps and the great work he has done for these routes.

Thanks.
Buen Camino
