There are many paths to Santiago but none is more significant and soulful than the Camino Portugués and no other so intimately connected to the life and ministry of St James, as well as to his death and burial. It was along this route that Sant Iagofirst preached Christ’s message to the pagan populace and it was along this self-same way that his body made its last journey to Libredon that would, in time, come to be known and loved all over the world as Santiago de Compostela. While rooted in its pagan, Roman and Christian history the Camino Portugués is open to everyone from every religion or none.

Part of the magic of the Camino Portugués is the choice between multiple magnificent routes. The Camino Central, Camino da Costa, Variante Espiritual and Senda Litoral – all of which are featured in this comprehensive guide.
