Itinerary for Portuguese Camino - last 100km



Sample Itinerary - Subject to changes

Day 1: Arrival to Valença do Minho
Meet with a member of our team for a briefing and to collect the documentation.
Meals included: none
Overnight in 3* hotel in Valença


Day 2: Walk from Valença to O Porriño
Admire the views up and downstream as you cross the International Bridge into Spain. Take some time to visit Tui’s magnificent cathedral and charming historical centre before heading into the countryside. Avoid the ugly industrial zone near Porriño using our recommended detour and you’ll spend most of the day in green fields and forests.
Hiking about 20 km / 12.4 miles
Meals included: Breakfast
Overnight in 2* hotel in O Porriño


Day 3: Walk from O Porriño to Arcade
As you leave O Porriño, you’ll pass through a number of villages before a gentle climb to the Chan das Pipas pine forest. As you make your way downhill towards Redondela, look out over the blue waters of the Ria de Vigo estuary. Today’s stage ends in the riverside town of Arcade – if you enjoy seafood, this is the best place to try oysters.
Hiking about 22 km / 13.6 miles
Meals included: Breakfast
Overnight in 2* hotel in Arcade


Day 4: Walk from Arcade to Pontevedra
Cross a historically significant bridge to leave Arcade and head into the hills along ancient stone paths. The countryside here is delightful and our recommended detour avoids the main road into Pontevedra so that you can walk alongside the River Tomeza in the shade of trees. Pontevedra is the biggest city on this route and has plenty to keep you entertained.
Hiking about 13 km / 8 miles
Meals included: Breakfast
Overnight in 3* hotel in Pontevedra


Day 5: Walk from Pontevedra to Caldas de Reis
Walk through the ancient streets of Pontevedra and out into the countryside where you’ll soon find yourself in a forest. That’s followed by fields and grape vines with a few brief stints on the main road before you reach the medieval spa town of Caldas de Reis.
Hiking about 22 km / 13.6 miles
Meals included: Breakfast
Overnight in 2* hotel in Caldas de Reis


Day 6: Walk from Caldas de Reis to Padrón
Start the day with a steady climb through a series of hamlets to reach the Valga woods. Once out in the open again, you’ll notice lots of elaborately carved crosses marking your route to Padrón, the town where the boat carrying St. James’ body is said to have washed ashore.
Hiking about 19 km / 11.8 miles
Meals included: Breakfast
Overnight in 3* hotel in Padrón


Day 7: Walk from Padrón to Santiago de Compostela
Your last day on the Camino is largely rural with a particularly pretty patch of forest before you get to the urban outskirts of Santiago. Enter the ancient town centre and make your way towards the cathedral square, Praza do Obradoiro, to join fellow pilgrims who have completed this epic journey.
Hiking about 25 km / 15.5 miles
Meals included: Breakfast
Overnight in 3* hotel in Santiago


Day 8: Departure
