Hi! Sorry for the late reply (holidays!) and Happy New Year! We intentionally stretched our itinerary over five more days that are strictly needed, so that we can enjoy the views, start late in the morning, have a rest day in Pontevedra, etc. While our average mileage was about 18 km per day, some stages were just 12 km, others - over 25 km. Here are the places we stayed in - some were brilliant, some just OK, and there were a couple of disappointing ones too. We didn't stay in albergues though (with just two exceptions), as I need my own room and bathroom. I pre-booked via Booking and AirBnB. Matosinhos - Harbour Inn Design Townhouse (recommend) Mindelo - ON THE WAY - Mindelo Beach/Guest House (highly recommend) Apúlia - Casa do Vale (OK) Antas - Antas Guest House (recommend) Viana do Castello - A Botoeira da Praça guest house (OK) Vila Praia de Âncora - Albergaria Quim Barreiros (recommend) A Guarda - Hotel Monumento Convento de San Benito (highly recommend) Oia - Casa Toñi (OK) Baiona - Pazo de Mendoza (highly recommend) Nigran - Hostal Montevideo (NO!) Vigo - Exe Vigo (highly recommend) Redondella - Pilgrim Rooms (OK) Pontevedra - Apt Pleno Centro Entrada Casco Antiguo (recommend) Armenteira - Villa Laredo (OK) Vilanova de Arousa - Arco da Vella apartamentos (recommend) Padron - Hostel & Rooms Murgadan (NO) Milladoiro - Casa Rural as Bentinas (recommend) I hope that helps. Buen Camino!

Thank you! I hope it will encourage you to walk the Camino (if you haven't done it already). Even in the unusually cold and rainy weather we had most of the time, it was exciting and very rewarding. We did challenge ourselves and we often had tough days (we hadn't done any training or preparation), but we came out of it tougher and with a sense of fulfilment. Good luck and Bom Camino!

Thank you! It's well worth a visit.

No, not yet. Do you recommend it?

Yes, the painted trees are in a park/forest (O Muino) on the way from the boat landing into A Guarda. Answering your second question - it's not a museum, but the wonderful Hotel Monumento Convento de San Benito, where we stayed the night and which I highly recommend. It's a 16th Century former convent converted into an excellent hotel, full of authentic artefacts.

Well thank you for the response and recommendation. I will follow your lovely advice.

Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you!

Thank you! And thank you for the recommendation. I didn't know about it, I'll put it on the list!

I would encourage you to do this route - it is not too challenging, it's beautiful, it's longer than the Central Portuguese route (we estimate we've walked about 350 km with a detour through the Variante Espiritual). Note that we intentionally stretched it over five more days that are strictly needed, so that we can enjoy the views, start late in the morning, have a rest day in Pontevedra, etc. While our average mileage was about 18 km per day, some stages were just 12 km, others - over 25 km.

Buen Camino!

😆 A picture says a thousand stories ...

Hi! Glad you liked it. We shot on our iPhones (13 Pro), but we used a Black Magic camera app (free) and the footage was later edited in DaVinci Resolve, with colour grading + a film look applied. I hope that helps :)

Just last month - from 29 April till 17 May. We weren't lucky with the weather - there was so much rain (way more than shown in the video) and it was unseasonably cold most of the time. Of 19 days on the road we had about 5 days without rain, and quite a few when it did rain all day.

😁

It is beautiful indeed!

Oui, je suis du même avis! Une ville de contrastes.

Thank you, glad you like it :)

Thank you!

Thank you Omar!

Thank you! It's definitely worth a visit, albeit just for a day or two.

Glad you liked it! Thank you for your nice comment!

I hope you'll have good weather in November. The town is very charming, I'm sure you will enjoy your trip.

Thank you! Glad you like it!

Thank you! Yes, we didn't know it then, but it turned out to be our last trip before lockdown. It was a nice outing indeed, as it was quite empty already.

Thank you! Glad you like it. It certainly brings back nice memories, too :)

Thank you! Merry Christmas to you and your family and loved ones too!

Thank you Rahim, my husband and I are very glad you like the videos!

Thank you! Australia has a lot to offer indeed, if only we had more time :)

Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it.

Beautiful indeed.

Thanks :)

Thank you, Omar!

evaianev Thanks for sharing good times you had . my best to the director please

Merci beaucoup! Je suis sure que vous aimerez la ville aussi.

Oui. Un jour je passerais visite. Un grand merci.

We used Rokkor X 50mm F1.4, Panasonic 12-35mm F2.8 and Tamron 35-80 CF Macro for the ceremony because we needed longer focal lengths. For the reception we used Voigts 10.5 and 25mm as well as Sigma 18-35mm.
