Pilgrims on the road and friends along the way send me changes every day, and they go out the same day. The Camino Portugués app carries all of it offline, and it's still being built — new features arrive routinely.

The Council of Vila Boa has installed highly visible yellow signs that guide you through town. After rounding the church, the camino winds through narrow lanes — watch for a cruceiro and wash basin at a fork (keep left) before heading toward the railway crossing into open countryside.
After rounding the church, keep on the road to the first side street and turn right. At the next fork (identifiable for the wash basin and cruceiro) keep to your left. One more right-hand turn and you are heading straight for the railway. At the tracks, the arrows turn left, but that is a not strictly necessary detour to an underpass. You are in the countryside now until Lijó. Turn left at the first fork and into town.
