This part starts in TUI (We cross the bridge from Valenca to Tui) and we then continue our walk towards Santiago de Compostela.
It is about 116 km to walk, and if you start in TUI you can get a Compostela after completing the Camino. See more at the end of the video on how to get this certificate.
We got into a bad situation because we chose not to take an alternative route through the forest, we also went a little wrong at a crossroads, we give you tips on how to deal with "walking under the sun for a long time" and much more that you possibly feel good to know before you set off on your Camino.

This time we traveled to Porto and walked the Camino Portuguese.
We flew via Lisbon, took a train to Porto where we then started our hike.
In Part 1 we started our walk in Porto and walked the Senda Litoral route up to Vila do Conde where we crossed over to Rubiaes and continued on the Inland Trail, Camino Central, to Valenca.
In this part, 2, we walk from Tui to Santiago de Compostela in Spain.
The Camino Portuguese has several variants:
The Camino Central (the inland route), the Camino Costal and the Senda Litoral route and there is also a spiritual variant of the camino, the spiritual way" that you can choose to walk after Pontevedra.
In total, we walked around 260 kilometers in 13 days.
Part 1 shows the first 7 days of hiking in Portugal.
Part 2 shows the last 6 days of hiking in Spain.
You need to walk the last 100 kilometers to be able to collect a Compostela after your hike and Tui is therefore a popular starting point as it is approximately 116 km from Tui to hike to Santiago de Compostela.
If you are looking for a Camino that you can walk for around 8-10 days and up, I think this Camino is a good alternative to parts of the Camino Frances, Camino de Santiago and other options that have Santiago de Compostela as their goal.
Portugal and Spain are fantastic countries with pleasant nature, nice people, good food and drink and wonderful hiking weather.
I can warmly recommend this route!
