MORNING


star iconDeparture from Porto


We will leave Porto going with our guide in a private vehicle to the village of Vitorino dos Piaes, where we will start a walk of approximately 12 kilometers to reach Ponte de Lima, thus making our first section of the Way of St. James of the trip.

Between villages, forest tracks, and wooded areas, we set off towards the pretty village of Ponte de Lima, where we cross the bridge to reach the town. This section of the stage has some gentle ascents, but, in general, it is a light and easy route.

MIDDAY


star iconFree time for lunch


After arriving in Ponte de Lima and enjoying a stroll at your own pace through the historic center, you will have free time for lunch at a restaurant of your choice. You can opt for a traditional Portuguese dish such as the famous Caldo Verde (green broth), Arroz de Cabidela (Cabidela rice), or the infallible Bacalhau.

Besides the Romanesque-medieval bridge, Ponte de Lima also has other architectural gems such as the Matriz Church, the Church of Santo António da Torre Velha or the Torre da Cadeia Velha, which is one of the two towers that remain in the city, and which was part of the old defensive wall of the town, are other interesting places to visit. We can complete the tour by strolling through the center where we can enjoy the Arco da Porta Nova, the Pazo do Marques, or the Largo de Camoes Square.
