The Portuguese Camino of the Interior (sometimes abbreviated as CPI Santiago) is one of the lesser-known routes, but also one of the most authentic for those wishing to walk the Camino de Santiago. With a route that crosses stunning landscapes, historic cities, and culturally rich sites, this path offers a unique experience for pilgrims.
This route starts in Viseu and passes through iconic regions such as Lamego, Peso da Régua, Vila Real, and Chaves, where it crosses the border into Spain. It follows ancient Roman roads and breathtaking natural landscapes, offering pilgrims a journey full of history and spirituality.
Some of the main advantages of this route include:
Fewer pilgrims, ensuring a quieter walk;
Authentic landscapes and a deeper connection with local culture;
Rich historical heritage, with churches, bridges, and centuries-old buildings along the way.
