Starting Camino Portugues (central) from Valenca on April 11th.

[Acordner]

Wondering if anyone else is starting around the same time and if anyone has any standout places I need to stop along the way!

The fortress in Valenca and the Cathedral in Tui surely deserve a visit
There is also a tavern under a stone building in the main street of Caldas the Reis (in front of a place called Balneario Aqua or something like this) that makes enormous portions of sardines that are delicious

Valenca is fab, the fort is great and the bridge between Valenca and Tui. The bridge in Arcade, spend a little time here, there is a nice coffee stop at the other end of bridge. Pontevedra is a lovely city to enjoy coffee and churches. Do not miss the hot springs in caldas de reis, the church in Padron (and Pedros coffee stop) just accross from it. Try the Pimientos de Padron.
Albergues - Ideas de Peregrina (Tui) although you may not be staying in Tui
O recuncho de Peregrino - Redondela
Aloxa - Pontevedra
O Milladoiro - short walk left into Santiago
