Camino Portugués – April 2023

– Porto to Santiago de Compostela – Coastal Route

– 280 kms

– April 9th – 20th, 2023

From the 9th to 20th of April 2023, I walked the Camino Portugués from Porto. It would not be the first time I had walked from Porto. In 2018, I had walked with my brother from A Guarda to Santiago and in 2022, I walked with my brother again and friend Wallace to Santiago again but from Porto. It was a fantastic break away and it was so nice to meet so many people from all around the world. Arriving in Santiago is always special and this time was no different. I would love it if you could let me know your thoughts once you have read my posts. Have you walked this particular route? Is this a route you want to walk?
