    Thoughts on leaving Lisbon

    Thanks for the great info! Will be three weeks behind you and will also stay at the VIP Executive Santa Iria. Planning to stick to the boardwalk, and have confidence an exit point (near Santa Iria) will provide a path from the river to the hotel. My wife and I would prefer the boardwalk, but...

    Rabaçal

    Elle...actually I think I answered my own question. I clicked on the Hostel/Albergue's link(in your blog) and it took me to Bookings. Had a look at the imbedded map. Has Albergue O Bonito smack in the middle of Rabacal. The accommenndation looks ok...so will definitely do us! Your blog has...

    Rabaçal

    Elle...sorry...another question if I may (and I'm trying hard not to be a barnacle lol). In reading your website for the Portuguese (Day 8 - Alvorge to Condeixa-A-Velha) there is detail of an albergue in Rabacal. When I was doing my initial research (and bookings) I couldn't find anything in...

    Lisbon River Route - A Map

    Elle…wow…what brilliant guidance! I spent an hour or so today trying to work out when best to leave the boardwalk by looking at Google Earth. Out of desperation I posed the question above. Thank you so much for taking the time and effort to provide such a comprehensive response (the pics really...

    Lisbon River Route - A Map

    Thanks for this information. I do have a question though. Have been trying to visualise, via Google Earth, whether the new boardwalk route has regular 'departure' points (exits). My wife and I will be staying in Santa Iria da Azoia, and I'm looking to where best we can leave the boardwalk to...

    Advice Requested on Hiking to Fatima from Lisboa via the Camhino Português

    Following your path in August, and settled on CP route to Tomar. In line with other comments saw Tomar as a town not to miss, and intend taking a rest day here. The following day will bus to Fatima, stay the night, then taxi (seems buses don't run on Monday when we'll be moving on) back to Tomar...

    Pilgrim Office opens in Lisboa!

    Great information...thank you! Heading over to Lisbon to walk the CP in Aug. Will most definitely visit.

    Bouncing between Central and Coastal

    Will be walking the Litoral,with Variante Espiritual, in September. I agree earlier comments that (I suspect) the two routes are very different...likely worthy of two separate Caminos.

    Peregrina...thanks for posting that link to Gronze!

    How many days from Lisbon to Santiago?

    I smile to myself and think...oh how I would like to be 'cut from the cloth' of this pilgrim...starting a Camino tomorrow and having no sense of how long it might take! Unfortunately, in my dreams! It's fun that we are all mostly so different....as I head back to my spreadsheet...planning the...

    Vigo-Santiago questions

    Dougfitz....my wife and I will be walking from Lisbon to Santiago over Aug/Sep next year. My wife's sisters would like to join us for the last 100km. At this time I'm assuming their start point would be with us on our arrival in Vigo. I'm reasonably confident that Vigo will qualify them for a...

    Santarem or Tomar for a Rest Day

    Trish - thank you! My wife and I participated in the the candlelight procession at Lourdes...and would look to repeat at Fatima. Your pic of same is outstanding. Like you..we're usually early risers on Camino, and would also be in for an early morning walk before breakfast! Trish - did you...

    Santarem or Tomar for a Rest Day

    Tom...thank you...yes...that is helpful. We're in GA (definitely NOT coastal) and, for whatever reason, seem drawn to the coastal path. That said, like you, if it all becomes 'much of a muchness' then good to know a change to the interior is always there as an option. Cheers!

    Santarem or Tomar for a Rest Day

    Dougfitz thanks for this. At this early planning phase I have us walking to Tomar, then we'll bus to Fatima for a couple of days...then bus back to Tomar to continue north (we won't have the extra few days to walk Tomar to Fatima return. I'm interested, though, in your walk to Fatima. We'd...
