This allows you to use segments to mark pauses during the individual legs of your tour. If you are recording a multi-day tour, we recommend creating one track per day. One more tip: a track should not be longer than one day. The duration and cumulated distance of the track will be the sum of the two segments' individual durations and cumulated distances. This treats the time and duration between these two points as a pause. Selecting Start new segment will exclude the distance and time since the last point of the previous segment from the recording. This will also increase the track's duration and cumulated distance, and affect other statistics. The distance and time between these two points will be added to the segment's cumulated distance and duration. If you select Continue last segment, Trails will continue recording by creating a straight line between the last point of that segment and your current location. You should decide whether you want to extend your existing track by recording a new segment or by continuing the last segment. If you think it is complicated, study the map of Portugal and north west of Spain and you will see it is not that complicated and just a matter of choise.A track is composed of one or more segments. This is the so called Variante Espiritual. There waits a boat for you and sails you in one hour to Padrón where you can finish your camino to Santiago om the central route again In Pontevedra you can go straight ahead on the Central to Caldas de Reis but also three kilometers past Pontevedra to the left to Combarro, Armenteira and Vila Nova de Arousa. or cross the river Minho by Ferry to Aguarda or follow the Minho river inland to Valença do Minho and you are on the Central route againĬrossing the river you continue to A Guarda, Oia, Baiona, Vigo to Redondela where you hit the central route again. Haha and in Caminha you can choose again. Also described in Brierleys 2016 edition. In Vila do Conde after the bridge you also can go to the left and there are the waymarkers to the coastal from Porto to Vila do Conde, Póvoa da Varzim,Esposende ,Viana do Castelo, Caminha. There you can choose after the bridge you cross to go to the right and you follow the central route again to São Pedro de Rates, Barcelos, Vitorino de Piaës(there is casa da Fernanda ,the best place to stay for the night on the entire central route from Porto),Ponte de Lima, Rubiães, Valença do Minho/ Tui, O Porriño,Redondela, Pontevedra, Caldas de Reis,and Padrón to Santiago. Follow from there the waymarkers to Vila do Conde. Other option also in Brierleys guide is walk from the The Porto cathedral to the Douro river and stay following it northwards to the Atlantic ocean by keeping the river at your left side.Īlso keep the ocean at your left untill you are in Matosinhas. You then are out of the busy infrastructure and walk through a nice rural area. Alternative is take the metro to Fórum Maia and walk from there. it is very unpleasant and dangerous walking on the hard shoulder of busy roads with heavy traffic. In Porto you can choose to walk the Central route through the busy industrial outskirts of Porto to Vairão and Vilarinho this is the main route in Brierley's guide. Then there is the caminho da Costa, the coastal from Porto See the subforum and have a look on a map to see where it starts-Farminhão north east of Coimbra. Then nearby Coimbra, north of it starts the caminho Interior, this caminho stays at the east side of Portugal and passes among others Viseu and Chaves and ciponnects to the Via de la Plata nearby Ourense in Portugal. It is a not so common camino I only saw a small part of it going to Sintra the other day You also can start in Estoril west of Lisbon and walk what they call the coastal from Lisbon.as mentioned in one of the subforums. That is the Central Route as mentioned in Brierley's guide. Well if you want to start from Lisbon you can choose to follow the river Tejo to Azambuja and Santarèm to Tomar, Coimbra, São Jaõa da Madeira o Porto. I agree it is a bit confusing and I allready suggested to rename the various subforums. don't click on them as long as you want to follow the central route. On top you'll see the different subforms like the Interior, the coastal from Lisbon, the coastal from Porto, the Variante Espiritual etc. Just go back to the page where you see all different camino's, ending in Santiagoįirst is the Camino Frances, second is the caminho Português.Ĭlick on the Caminho Portugues and you are in the forum which is about the central route.
