Porto to SC Route Suggestion

[joemok]

Hi all,

This is my first time to walk the pilgrim. I have about 10 days and will start from Porto mid of May.

Do welcome to give comment on the route that I just simply planned based on the google map. And also any albergue along the way.

Day 1 - Povoa de Varzim to Marinhas (21km)
Day 2 - Marinhas - Carreco (26km)
Day 3 - Carreco - Caminha (17km)
Day 4 - Caminda - Valenca/Tui (29km)
Day 5 - Valenca/Tui - O Porrino (14km)
Day 6 - O Porrino to Arcade (22km)
Day 7 - Arcade to A Gandara (25km)
Day 8 - A Gandara to Padron (25km)
Day 9 - Padron to SC (20km)

Spare 1 day just in case too tired and walk shorter in between.

Hi Joemok,

Welcome to this forum. To get a good idea about stages and albergues, take a look at gronze.com:

Camino Portugués de la Costa | Gronze.com

El Camino Portugués de la Costa sigue el litoral atlántico desde Porto, pasando por Viana do Castelo, A Guarda y Vigo, hasta unirse al Camino Portugués Central en Redondela. Utilizado desde el siglo XVI por los peregrinos, este camino está creciendo de forma imparable. Motivos no le faltan...

www.gronze.com

There you can see where the albergues are and use it to plan your own stages. Hope this helps.

Looks good and do-able. Bom Caminho!

Open Gronze in Google Chrome because it will translate it (does a good job) into English or any language. You can also download a couple of free apps like Buen Camino which has a section on the coastal camino and Wise Pilgrim. I haven't walked that section but intend to. It looks like it is really pretty and really easy. It will be a good intro for you. Hopefully you will get hooked and then you can discover lots of other camino paths all different and all special.

Have a look at my blog, too, if you want. This is a lovely, lovely route! Caminho Portugues Route.
