This is the Camino Portugués that I am going to follow from Porto with the coastal version at the beginning to scip industrial area and to scip dangerous traffic and ofcourse to enjoy the Atlantic Coast. The first day I will walk from the cathedral in Porto along the river Douro in Porto and then along the coast to Matosinhos (= about 12 km). The next day from Matosinhos to Vila Chã (= about 15 km) and the other day from Vila Chã to Vila do Conde (= 8 km). In Vila do Conde I will have hopefully plenty of time to do sightseeing in Vila do Conde as well as in Povóa de Varzim. I can take the metro from Vila do Conde to Povóa de Varzim. It is only a short distance. After my stay in Vila do Conde I will follow the red track to Rates on the way to Barcelos. From Rates I will be on the Camino Central where are more pilgrims and there is also more camino history. Just after Barcelos pilgrims are enetring this Camino Central as well. They were coming through Guimarães and Braga. They came maybe all the way from Salamanca or even from Seville in the south of Spain.
See for their track http://caminosantiago.usal.es/torres/
