    Field (and mountain) report from Portugues Interior - June 2018

    I am thinking of doing the Interior by bike. I have done the Portuguese Central by bike. I am happy to push up hills. Would you say this would be possible? I am slightly concerned about accommodation. Were you restricted on albergues due to money, would there be more pricier options. Thanks in...

    From Viseu to Santiago

    Many thanks for the advice and warnings. I suspect their system has specific options make pilgrim processing faster. You have to register to get a QR code online now before turning up at the Pilgrims Office. I think the only options I can pick is Camino Portuguese. I will be taking my bike which...

    From Viseu to Santiago

    Can you get a Compostela walking the Camino Portuguese Interior? I asked the Pilgrims Office and they said the only valid routes are the Coastal and Central. I could start from Coimbra which is on the Central before going East to Viseu. Thankyou :)

    Cycling the Camino Portuguese Interior (not Central)

    There is relatively so little information about this Camino. I suspect 99% of pilgrims have never even heard of it. I will try other forums as you suggest.

    Cycling the Camino Portuguese Interior (not Central)

    I have cycled the Coastal from Porto and the Central from Lisbon. Has anyone cycled the Camino Portuguese Interior from Viseu and was it ok?

    Bike Logistics Via de La Plata

    I am lucky that I have a lot of airline miles saved up, so flights and bike on board flight are free. The local bike company gives me a cardboard bike box (free) and I am an Engineer so know how to prep bikes for transport and re-assembly. I looked at the bike hire costs and I put in a relaxed...

    Bike Logistics Via de La Plata

    Many thanks for the advice. It sounds like a plan. My fall back at the moment is one way car hire, but I will be exhausted from the cycling! I have other friends who are highly recommending the Via

    Bike Logistics Via de La Plata

    I have cycled Portuguese Caminos three times now and always taken my own bike and start and finish in Lisbon. The Hotel keeps my bike box and suitcase for the three week trip. I am thinking of doing the VdLP from Seville to Santiago. I would like to use my own bike to save money. Does anyone...

    🚴 Shipping bikes from Santiago service

    I used the service back to UK in 2019. The Correos take the pedals and bars off for you and pack the bike. No need for tools. Sadly this service is no longer available to UK. It is also not available to some EU countries (or it least that was the case in 2022).

    New route out of Lisbon?

    Or Perigrina! Many thanks, I could see from the map in the thread exactly where it is planned to be. It actually won't make the route safer (from a road perspective), as the current loop that takes you from Savacem to Alverca is road free too. I will definitely take the new boardwalk route in...

    New route out of Lisbon?

    I cycled as far as Ansiao in 2022, but I fell before Tomar and ended up in hospital. I am trying again from Lisbon in September 2023. I know there is a shared use path close to the river between Alhandra and Vila Franca da Xira which I did not know about in 2022. This "diversion takes you away...
