Camino de Sant… (not verified)

As you make your way up the hill, cross the railway again and you stumble upon a fantastic cafe in the old railway station building - thoroughly recommended!

This place is by far worth the extra 2km. Nickolas (sp?) is a wonderful host. No other albergue on the Camino offers a waterfall shower at the end of the day. If you want a true Pilgrim experience on the way to Porto, you must stop here!!!

This is just a perfect place to stay at when walking the Portuguese Camino. You have a waterfall and a big natural pool where you can cool your body and feet after a long walk in the sun. It's so quiet here and there are hammocks or grass where you can also relax. Great homemade dinner for only 5 euro, you can buy a glass of wine, beer or soda for 1 euro or walk to the nearby village and have a coffe and cake at the bakery (it's closed on Mondays). I was recommended to walk to the coast from here and up to Porto and I will do that. My next stop will be in Avor 😀

very nice host (speaks german, too) who cooked for us for 5 eur/person. bed bunk for 15-17 eur/night. lovely place. the first time i slept without ear plugs just hearing waterfall instead of party crowd or street noise. and i slept very well. lovely rustical place to come down. i planned to sleep a stage at albergaria a nova before, but decided spontanously to work 1 stage further. it was totally worth it. thank you!

The water mill albergue is a fantastic pilgrim stop. Best place to stay on this stretch for sure!

Nikolas was such a wonderful albergue host! He made vegetarian goulash and a warm roll and dessert for me and brought it to me where I sat out in the sun listening to a peaceful waterfall. I HIGHLY recommend staying in this little oasis. It is beautiful and peaceful.

My favorite albergue on the Camino Portugués so far. Fantastic location. Awesome dorm in a converted mill. You can swim or shower in the waterfalls. Great food and great host!!

It is so beautiful her! You have to walk a little bit more but it's totaly worth! Go to the Moinho Garcia and you can chill for a moment on this journey

Camino de Sant…

A little off the way, but so worth it. Tranquil, peaceful, rustic and the goulash is to die for. A highlight of my Camino!
