The Camino Portugues

di KAT DAVIS (Autore)

Cicerone Press, 2023

A guidebook to walking the Camino Portugués pilgrimage route through Portugal, from Lisbon, Porto or Tui to Santiago de Compostela. Covering 620km (385 miles), this popular alternative to the Camino Francés – and the second most-travelled pilgrim route to Santiago – can be walked in around 1 month and is suitable for reasonably fit walkers. The route is described south to north in 25 stages, each between 16 and 34km (10–21 miles) in length. The Central Camino, the Coastal Camino (between Porto and Redondela) and the Spiritual Variant (from Pontevedra to Padrón), plus link routes, are all described. Along the way the route passes historic and religious sites, including four UNESCO World Heritage areas: the Knights Templar Castle at Tomar, Portugal’s oldest university at Coimbra, and the old towns of Porto and Santiago de Compostela, where the pilgrimage culminates at the cathedral. Santiago has been a place of pilgrimage since 1211. 1:100,000 mapping plus larger-scale urban maps for key locations Step-by-step route description with GPX files available to download Advice on planning, preparation, pilgrim passports and equipment Comprehensive information on facilities, food and pilgrim lodgings Facilities tables showing availability of accommodation, food, supermarkets, ATMs and pharmacies Glossary of useful terms
