  • Stage 9 of Vigo´S Portuguese Way of Saint James Along the Coast
    Stage 9 of Vigo´s Portuguese Way of Saint James along the coast Is one of the routes that cross Portugal towards Galicia, and one of the last to be recognized as official, despite historical evidence. This coastal route was formerly used by pilgrims who arrived at the ports of Portugal in order to reach Santiago de Compostela. It was quite popular until the 16th Century but was lost in favor of other routes such as the “Classic Portuguese Way”, regaining importance today. As the official recognition of the Portuguese Way of Saint James along the coast is still recent, there is no defined network of shelters, which forces the pilgrims to plan the accommodation in advance. Although on the other hand, being a less traveled road, it offers a greater feeling of recollection and adventure. The route starts in Oporto, goes through Póvoa de Varzim, Viana do Castelo and Caminha. Crosses Miño´s river mouth in Spain, and continues through A Guarda, Bayona and Vigo to Redondela, where it joins the “Basque Way of Saint James”. There are almost 200 kilometers of route that run through an incomparable natural landscape. Although is the pilgrim himself who sets the pace, the Portuguese Way along the coast takes place in about 13 stages on foot between 16 and 29 kilometers. The route is generally flat and passable throughout the year due to the proximity of the ocean, although is important to add that spring and autumn are the best times to do the route. Vigo is an exceptional starting point to enjoy the towns of Ría de Vigo and the Cíes Islands, integrated into the National Park of the Atlantic Islands.
