The Vairão – Barcelos stage is a night to day difference from the previous route. Starting in the small woods, at the exit of the picturesque village, we see a tender market being set up, if we wake up with the sunrise. From there, we have a set of typical cafes, always ready to receive the pilgrims for breakfast or to reinforce it.
As we enter Vila do Conde we have idyllic images of the Portuguese nature, with special emphasis on the different shades of green that can be found on all the roads.
The route is always flat, with slight slopes. Today, it is a long and tiring route, but without major difficulties. It is well equipped in terms of infrastructure, designed for walkers.
When you arrive in the city of Barcelos, you have the perfect place for a cosmopolitan break. There are restaurants with meals at tasty prices and a river beach that comes in handy after the effort made.
