Description
This is the most beautiful part of the portuguese camino, which terminates in the picturesque Ponte de Lima. This stage passes through a rural area, although you can see a lot of beautiful houses scattered about and a really well looked after road.
There is a steep slope going upwards between the km 7 and 9,4 which ends in Porta de Tamel. There is another rising slope at the same height as Virotino dos Piaes but it’s not as steep as the first part of this stage.
