Camino De Santiago: The Scenic Portuguese Route
Rediscover the wonders of nature and the stillness of the mind on this scenic blend of the Portuguese and the Spiritual routes of the Camino de Santiago. The walk will cover about 75 miles. Take time to reflect, contemplate, meditate, and give this challenge the meaning you prefer, whether spiritual, religious, physical, or just an opportunity to meet like-minded people. After landing in Porto, start your journey by walking across the Portuguese-Spanish border on the bridge over the Minho River. Drive to the coastal town of Baiona and walk the Portuguese Way skirting the Atlantic Ocean to Pontevedra. From there, join the Spiritual Variant towards the Ulla River in Cambados and experience a boat cruise to Padrón.
The Spiritual Variant is the name given to the route that joins the Camino Portugues, both the Coastal and Central route, with the Traslatio (or Transfer) route. It ends in Santiago de Compostela following the route taken by the remains of the Apostle James, from Jerusalem to Iria Flavia, near Padrón. Discover spectacular landscapes and seascapes, seize the opportunity to discover historical places, and enjoy the authentic cuisine of the Galician region.
Evening Mass will be available in most towns for those who wish to attend. In Santiago de Compostela you can attend Pilgrim Mass. You will receive the Compostela Certificate upon completion of the entire route on foot.

Vigo is a vibrant city nestled in the heart of Galicia, Spain, on the shores of the Atlantic Ocean. It is a treasure trove of history, culture, and natural beauty with origins dating back to Roman times and a fascinating evolution that has transpired through the centuries. The historic quarter, Casco Vello, is a maze of narrow streets and charming squares where visitors can explore ancient churches and traditional Galician houses and, perched upon a hill, the imposing Castro Fortress, which offers panoramic views of the city and the Ría de Vigo. One of the most popular attractions is the Cíes Islands, part of the Atlantic Islands of Galicia National Park. These islands are a true paradise, with pristine beaches, crystal-clear waters, and a rich array of wildlife. Accessible by boat from Vigo, the Cíes Islands offer great opportunities for hiking, swimming, and birdwatching. The nearby Rías Baixas estuary, known for its stunning scenery and charming fishing villages, also provides opportunities for kayaking, sailing, and seafood dining by the water. |
