Tuy to Santiago

[Naoufal]

Greetings,
I have 5 full days of walking to reach Santiago starting from around Tuy. Can anyone suggest an itinerary where I can minimize walking on paved roads/industrial areas?
I have done the Camino Frances twice. Walking 25-35 Km a day should not be a problem...

Thanks,

Naoufal

If you can do 25-30km in a day, there will be no problem to get t Santiago. The Central route from Tui is beautiful, and you can avoid the Porrino industrial area taking the Rio Louro alternative, which is very well marked.

You can check a 5-day itinerary on Gronze: https://www.gronze.com/camino-portugues
I usually avoid a long first day, so I'd probably start in Valença and finish the first day in Porrino, and then try to get some ground from there to finish in 5 days.

Hi Naoufal, welcome to the forum! What @Anamya said . Also, take the alternative river route before Pontevedra. It’s a bit longer than the road, as it follows every little bend in the river, but it is really delightful.

Before Pontevedrs I took the alternative following the Tomeza river It was the whole time under the oaks It is well marked.

Both those suggested alternatives are easy to find. They won’t add much in distance and are beautiful

Many thanks all,
Anyone knows of possible accommodation between "O Porriño" and "Redondela"?
