The Portuguese Way in Galicia wanders gently northward, following old roads that cross forests, fields, villages, ancient cities. Roads that jump over water channels through medieval bridges. Roads enriched with the presence of shrines, churches, convents and stone-crosses, where the comforting image of Saint James appears often, accompanying the pilgrim on his or her journey.
This 5-day walking route along the Spanish leg of the Portuguese Camino route offers a landscape that stretches from rolling hills down to the sea, hugging the coast along the estuaries of Vigo and Pontevedra , leading pilgrims into leafy woodlands , waterfalls and hot springs.
