The Portuguese Way (sp: Camino Portuguese) is a great option for pilgrims looking for a more rural experience on the Camino de Santiago. It starts in Lisbon, the Portuguese capital city and home of several UNESCO sites; and passes through Santarem (one of the last Moorish bastions in Portugal), Coimbra (with its 13th C. university - once the best in the world) and Porto (UNESCO World heritage site and home of Port wine). Along the Portuguese Way, you will travel along terraced fields, vineyards and sleepy villages. The last 100km, starts in the border town of Tui, which has a beautiful historic centre and fortress facing its counter-part in Portugal on the other side of the river. See the full description of the Camino Portuguese Way and itinerary or the travel guide.

Notas do Editor

- Passport – in the past, letter issued by your priest this enabled feed food and accommodation along the way! Cert can be issued in Latin for religious pilgrims or on English
- Pontevedra – walking into Day 4 of the last 100km
- Section 3 into Porto, not as many cafes and utilities along the way
- Section 3 last town before Porto
- Section 4 first stop after porto- cafes and utilities start to improve
- 2nd section, riding school – traditional equestrian area
- Hostels – Cannot book, good for budget travellers Hotels – Accommodation confirmed – luggage transferred – support and backup
- Lisbon – Great climate, two unesco sites. First section along the river Tejo an area also known as the Garden of Portugal .
- Getting more rural. But the way is not well marked and can be along national roads, a suggestion would be to cycle the first 3 sections to Porto.
- Along the river, arrive in Vila F DE X along a national road. Known for Bull Fighting
- Last day on this section onto the highest point – 110 metres, amazing views from the Citedal! Walk through vineyeards, groves of fruit trees and crops
- Historic square with steps up to cathedral

- Medieval Castle on the Tagus River. Part of the defensive line controlled by the Knights Templar.
- Historical City with the Praza de la Republica. Originally constructed by the Knight Templar. Centre for Portugal’s overseas expansion under Henry the Navigator
- Lots of young people, energic city. Nations capital during the middle ages.
- One of the oldest uni’s in Europe,
- Weather getting a bit cooler, more farms and rustic appeal. Porto Unesco site
- Second largest city in Portugal located on the Douro river. Lots of activities along the water front, typical narrow streets in the Historic centre. Fortified wine – Port originally made for long voyages and became popular in England as a way to drink wine.
- The most popular last two sections of the Portuguese Way, The 4th section to Tui is more rural with climate changing giving the landscape greener field which we are used to. More underdeveloped old roads and roman bridges.
- Walking through the fragrant Eucalyptus and Pine entering Arcos, this is the lodging we use through the door into the private vine yards
- Some of the path is rough terraine
- Changing countryside – what to expect for the rest of the walk
- The boarder, Valencia on the Portugese side crossing the bridge entering Tui – the starting point fot the last 100km
- View across boarders

- Day 3 walking into Arcade on the coast, resort town on a spainish ford
- 13 century church with view over the bay of Vigo
- Padron is very important as it is the landing site for St James when he came to preach, and return headless in a stone boat. His remains we carried to Santiago to be entombed. You are walking in the footsteps.
