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.

I called today hoping the Centro Social was open again but the lady who picked up the call confirmed it is still closed. Don't plan to stop here.

04/2022 - church is closed

Although I haven’t got any official confirmation from them, every local from the nearby towns say that it is closed and does not accept guests. Don’t plan to stay there, choose accomodation in Anadia, Sernadelo or Mealhada!
