The southern suburbs, more and more urban.
The lodges by the river, the Dom Luís I bridge and the climb to the Sé.
Tips
Almost all offer tours with tastings. Best in the afternoon, with your pack already at the albergue.
The upper deck of the bridge has the best views of the Douro.
From Porto you can carry on inland or along the coast: this is where you decide.
Choose how many kilometres you want to walk each day and Suseia splits the route from Grijó to Santiago into stages based on the albergues in each town. Free and without signing up.
