A guidebook to walking the Camino Portugues (Portuguese Way), 620km from Lisbon in Portugal to Santiago de Compostela in Spain. The book gives stage-by-stage directions for the Central Camino, starting from Lisbon, Porto or Tui, the Coastal Camino between Porto and Redondela, and the Spiritual Variant route from Pontevedra to Padrón. It also describes link routes that can be used to swap from one route to another. Detailed route guidance and maps are accompanied by fascinating information about historic and religious sites passed along the way. It is packed with essential information for pilgrims, with advice on getting there, when to go, where to stay and equipment. An indispensable facilities table showing the availability of accommodation, refreshments, supermarkets, ATMs and pharmacies along the route, and a handy glossary, make this the complete guide to the Camino. Since 1211 Santiago de Compostela has been a place of holy pilgrimage and the Camino Portugués is the second most travelled pilgrim route. The largely rural journey takes in four UNESCO World Heritage Areas - the Knights Templar Castle at Tomar, Portugal's oldest University at Coimbra, and the old towns of Porto and Santiago - culminating at the cathedral at Santiago de Compostela.

When I decided to walk the Camino de Santiago alone at age 71, it was on a whim. A year and a half earlier, I had had a hip replacement, but felt that I had become complacent in a comfortable retirement, and needed to shake up my life. And that's what I did.I knew walking a Camino wouldn't be easy or pain-free. Despite months of training and preparation, there was no way I could plan for the unexpected.On my third day of walking, an injury on the trail threatened my ability to finish my adventure. It would be more difficult and demanding than I ever imagined, forcing me to reach beyond physical pain and endurance, battle self-doubts, and draw from a spirit within me to finish the walk all the way to Santiago de Compostela. Along the way, I discover unexpected feelings and surprising emotions.Walk by My Side takes the reader from the months of preparation in central Mexico to Portugal where I started a 100 mile journey on the Camino Portugues to Santiago de Compestela in Spain. I'll take you with me as I walk to the rhythm of the endless ocean surf, navigate sprawling suburbs that have engulfed the ancient Way, traverse the Camino's paths and the back roads of Galicia, and savor the tastes of Galician food and wine. Along the way, I meet a variety of characters, pilgrims from around the world, who are walking for their own personal reasons, and observe a Camino that is changing to accommodate expansive growth and ever-increasing numbers of pilgrims.When I first started writing this book I had a friend read an early chapter where I started walking the Camino. Her comment to me was "I felt like I was walking with you, walking by your side." That comment inspired the book's title and a promise to the reader to maintain that feeling throughout the journey.Read this travel memoir and you'll be there with me...walking by my side.

Revised and updated for 2018. The only Camino guidebook written by a person who works as a guide on the Camino and who gets to walk regularly to Santiago de Compostela. A Survival Guide to the Portuguese Camino in Galicia will not only provide you with simple, concise and to-the-point information about the route you are following, but will also help you understand and appreciate Spanish idiosyncrasy, which is usually the most intriguing, and at times frustrating, part of a trip for travellers. This is also a guidebook that provides insider insight and information about the Camino; information on where you are walking, why you are looking at things and how to make the most of your experience; all that stuff that is not readily available to travellers from abroad. In a nutshell, this is a guidebook written by a Spanish pilgrim for pilgrims from abroad. Please note that this guidebook only covers the last section of the Portuguese Camino, the part that crosses Galicia in Spain. It does NOT cover any of the stages in Portugal.

Walking the lesser traveled Portuguese Camino route, author Terence Callery makes the arduous 400-mile sacred pilgrimage from Lisbon to the tomb of Saint James in Santiago de Compostela, Spain. At a crossroads in his life, the former Maine aquaculture executive and alpaca farmer describes the personal quest as "the most intensely spiritual seven weeks of my life." Portuguese Camino-In Search of the Infinite Moment is the adroitly told story of two journeys taken in tandem. The first story focuses on how his walking meditation brings him into the "infinite moment" where he finds his spiritual center, as well as healing from personal loss. The second story is a well-researched account of the geography, history and culture that he encountered along the Way. There is a palpable sense of place evoked as he writes about 12th century monasteries, Gothic cathedrals and Templar castles.He sets out alone with an eighteen-pound backpack in the winter well before the start of the pilgrim season which peaks in the summer months. He travels solo in silent meditation for weeks until he arrives in Porto where he finally begins to encounter other pilgrims making Christianity's most important pilgrimage. The author finds his fellow seekers to be fearless and profoundly open. There is Ron, the war veteran from Zimbabwe, who is seeking healing from the Camino whose world view had evolved from accepting God in the halls of AA to now studying ancestor worship with African shamans. There is Katja who had recently lost her partner to bone cancer who shares with her plan to deposit her wedding ring in the poor box at the great Santiago Cathedral at the end of her Camino. And there is Numi a twenty-nine-year-old Muslim business consultant for whom Callery becomes a mentor. He urges the young man to discover his "foundational self" through the practice of mindfulness. At a small albergue, the owner Marlene speaks of the "grand sense of wonder" that she found as a pilgrim. The author becomes increasingly buoyant from the restorative power of mindful walking. However, it is a chance meeting with Ophelia, a Portuguese artist, and the prospect of romantic love that makes his adventure so memorable.The author embeds his writing with little gemstones of philosophy such as the Epicurean belief that "it is not what we posses, but rather what we experience that is the measure of our abundance." Callery writes about relishing new experiences "like sucking the juice from a ripe fruit." He tries roast suckling pig in Mealhada, octopus in Padron, salt cod or baccaleau in Vilafranca-de-Xira. He learns about the Gnostic beliefs of the Templar knights in Tomar. He takes time to visit the beautiful Se Cathedral in Porto. He dances to the pulsating rhythms of a nine-piece Fado band in the streets of Coimbra.His daily practice of "Chi Walking", focusing on balance instead of strength, is emblematic of a decidedly Zen approach to the Camino pilgrimage. For the author, the process of enlightenment is not about the Western idea of adding more and more knowledge to the self. This author's voyage of self-discovery is a "winnowing" where the clutter of one's person narrative is sifted out revealing the "foundational self" fully experienced in the present moment in mindfulness.

This guidebook describes the Way of St Francis a 550km month-long pilgrimage trail from Florence through Assisi to Rome. Split into 28 day stages, the walk begins in Florence and finishes in the Vatican City. Stages range from 8km to 30km with plenty to see, including ancient ruins, picturesque towns, national treasures, and stunning churches. This comprehensive guidebook fits in a jacket pocket or rucksack, and contains information on everything from accommodation and transport in Italy, to securing your credential (pilgrim identity card), budgeting, what to take, and where to do laundry. Stories of Francis of Assisi's life are also included. Although the route includes climbs and descents of up to 1200m, no special equipment is required - although your hiking boots and socks definitely need to get along. Following the steps of heroes, conquerors and saints on this pilgrim trail is manageable all year round, but is best done from April to June and mid-August to October. Route maps are given for every stage, and basic Italian phrases are included in the guidebook.
