Stayingat the Fire Station

Warning!

Although this information it’s correct, it could happen to have also lodging facilities denied by Firefighters, especially in the North of Portugal, where some thefts of equipment occurred recently. There are Commanders and 2nd Commanders who are denying sometimes requests from pilgrims, both Portuguese and from abroad.

Try to see in advance where you are going to stay for the night, and plan also alternative places and routes.

Best Regards

The Bomberos are not quite as welcoming as they once were. There are a number of albergues open now between Porto and Valença and so don´t count on their open arms! On the coastal route you might have more luck.
