Does anyone have a document similar to the one french one that shows distances, elevations and their suggested stage lengths but for the Portuguese Camino ?
 
The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.
John Brierley's book, Camino Portugués, has this information, tho the Portugués is pretty flat and the elevations are unimpressive - about 150-250 meters change in a day typically. The only climb I remember is leaving Combarra on the Variante Espiritual.

I am planning my Camino Portuguse based on the inforamtion from the site below:
https://www.gronze.com/camino-portugues

The site shows distances, elevations, suggested stage lengths, sight-seeing spots, ...
 
...and ship it to Santiago for storage. You pick it up once in Santiago. Service offered by Casa Ivar (we use DHL for transportation).
Gronze is really a comprehensive look at most of the more popular routes.
 
Thanks for all the helpful info.

You meant Coimbra where we read Combarra?
 
Combarro is on the first day of the Variante Espiritual (after Pontevedra).

Ok Thanks. I searched google for "Combarra" and didn´t found it on the first 3 pages , so I thought it was a mistake.

Attention , talking about the coastal way. Some flyers in the Attachments show the way via Vairão , Rates und then leading to Esposende. Vairão und Rates are on the Central Way. The attachments ar not up to date! Nowadays pilgrims start for the Coastal in Porto along the river Douro, then along the coast via Matosinhos, Angeiras, Vila do Conde, Póvoa de Varzim and so on......................... In Luis Frexo`s page you will find all the maps: http://www.caminador.es/?page_id=117

I have a Camino Portugues guide by John Brierley which has all of that information . . . stages, distances between restaurants, bars, albergues, elevations, etc. etc I used his book for my Camino Frances and was sorry he didn't write one for the del Norte. I plan to walk from Porto to Santiago mid-September, and hope to do the coastal route as much as possible.
HI . - are you doing the walk ? How is it going? Mick

Hi there. On the coastal Portugués route right now. Currently in Viana Do Castelo and trying to decide if I should take the Senda Litoral route tomorrow to Vila Praia Ancora? Any suggestions). Thanks. Barbara
