Camino de Santiago across Gerês By Hiking - 6 Days

Braga 6 days

This tour is perfect for pilgrims looking for a less travelled camino and for History lovers!

We suggest exploring the Portuguese half of the Geira and Arreiross Camino, one of the oldest and the most difficult Santiago Way starting in Portugal.

Explore the Geira, the XVIII route of the Roman Empire, which started being built in 14 b. C. to connect Bracara Augusta (Braga) and Asturica Augusta (Astorga), back when Octavius Augustus was leading the Western civilization. The green Minho will delight you and offer distinct aspects of the surrounding area to admire.

Starting in Braga and ending in the Spanish border (the 2 nd time, because well be crossing the Spanish border twice to cross Xurs), where you can either keep in the camino and walk the remaining 150 km (93 mi) to Santiago or go back to Braga.

For a comfortable and safe route, we divided it in 5 stages, on a total of 100 km (62 mi). Each day, youll have guide, pick-up and drop-off, packed lunches delivered midway, snacks, water, photos and insurance guaranteed. This way, you dont have to carry any weight (the SUV will do it for you) and you can comfortably go back to Braga each day (or to an accommodation closer to the finishstarting points of each stage).

A pilgrim's credential is also included, so you can collect stamps along the way to Santiago de Compostela and prove you walked on one of St. James Ways.

Specifics 5 stages with long hikes (from 5 to 10 hours) Suitable for ages from 2 to 75 years old Duration of each stage: full day 9:00 to 20:00 For groups of 5 or more people, please call or e-mail to book
