Beautiful!Live from the Caminho Português: We spent last night in the lovely Albergue de Peregrinos do Mosteiro de Vairão. As of April 17 it was far from full (only 11 pilgrims at dinner) and no need to book ahead. Private rooms were available for 30€. Great pilgrim meal with veg and non-veg options.

Sorry, I thought I answered this but it disappeared!How short are your stages? I want to walk the Central this fall, but l don’t walk more than 20 km per day.
Sorry but I haven't been to Vigo. The parts of the Caminho Português I've been on so far are pretty well waymarked but I've found it valuable to have a map handy anyway.We’re planning our Camino Portuguese Coastal route from Vigo on the last week of May. Is it easy to spot the signs. It will be our first time walking 10 miles a day. Are there bars/ cafes along the route? How long does it take you to walk each day?
Which app are you using? Are you using google maps? I will keep following your walk. Thanks!Sorry but I haven't been to Vigo. The parts of the Caminho Português I've been on so far are pretty well waymarked but I've found it valuable to have a map handy anyway.
In comparison with my previous experience on the Francés, the Portuguese camino seems to have lots of forks and competing paths. It's a bit like somebody threw some spaghetti on the ground and every strand will eventually get you to Santiago, but you might be on a different one than you intended. Just between Maia and Vairão we took two variant paths that weren't what we planned, but before too long they reconverged with the main path.
Yes, I'm using Google Maps with Flannery's map inserted in it. I'm a little fuzzy on why this works, but click this link on your phone and Flannery's map will get added to your Google Map:Which app are you using? Are you using google maps?
Pilgrim accommodations don't appear to be saturated yet but it might seem that way to someone trying to prebook everything.
