Caminho Nascente (Fátima to the Sea)

[Rodrigo Cerqueira]

The Caminho Nascente connects Fátima to Nazaré (Sea). A beautiful path (52,6km) across the mountains and the the pine forests. One of the hardest Caminhos signed by the Associação de Amigos dos Caminhos de Fátima with a breath taking end with the Atlantic Ocean. Download the free guide: http://www.caminho.com.pt/mapas_e.html

Hello Rodrigo! Awesome pictures! I would like to walk this route. Unfortunately, there is no information about albergues on this route. Is there any place to stay for a night? In Perdreiras for instance?

 

[Rodrigo Cerqueira]

Hi Marusia.
You can find the information about the Albergues of the Caminhos Poente in this page https://www.caminho.com.pt/onde_ficar_e.html

Bom caminho.

I think the little "huts" with "A" in the map/profile are showing accommodation. Is that right?

Thank you, Rodrigo! Not too many places though Do they have enough sleeping places or it's necessary to be in the first row to get a place? Has anyone walked the whole route (53 km) at once? I would like to try

Because the two places are private my advice is to call first to make a reservation. This Caminhos aren’t peaceful. You don’t need to be in the first row.
Try the Albergue Ibon in Ansião. About the 53km maybe you need to ask your self what you want to achieve in your inner Caminho. Bom Caminho.

Ola Rodrigo! I will soon start walking from Nazaré -> Fátima -> Tomar, and then from Tomar I plan to head north towards Santiago. Do you know if the albergues on the Nascente and Poente are open for pilgrims in the next couple of weeks? Is it better to call and book ahead if walking close to the 13th May as it is Fátima's day, I wonder if it will be busy...or very very quiet obrigada

Olá Lopez. The Albergues are open. But you should contact in advance. You can find the Albergues contact information in https://www.caminho.com.pt/albergues?lang=en
Staying in Fatima on the days close to the 13th of May it can be a big challenge. Specially this year... Bom Caminho.

Muita obrigada Rodrigo, the website is really a brilliant resource. - do you mean a big challenge because it will be very busy or because things will be closed?

 

[Rodrigo Cerqueira]

Thank you for your kind words. This year is a big challenge because it will be busy+covid limitations+some places will be closed. Perfect storm. Good luck.
