May 26, 2022,Portugal 🇵🇹- Caminho Português - Tag 6

Day 6 was wonderfully relaxed. From Caminha we went inland along the Minho River. The feet are now a little better and the distance was more like a walk. Now it's time to say goodbye to Portugal, because tomorrow we'll cross the border to Spain - next stop Tui.

May 29, 2025,Portugiesischer Küstenweg (Jakobsweg) 13 Tage - Tag 6 - von Caminha nach Vila Nova de Cerveira

This tour is recommended by the yellow Camino guidebook—which differs in large part from the original Camino. It runs along the river, okay, but the red surface of the bike path just makes your feet tired, and it was actually boring. Not a pleasant route in today's heat.

Today is our 7th day of pilgrimage, from Caminha to Villa Nova de Cerveira!
The weather was very changeable today, several torrential rain showers!
