Tur audio The Portuguese Way Of Santiago – Barcelos 2st Stage

Barcelos→ Arcozelo → Vila Boa → Lijó → Carapeços → Tamel S. Fins → Aborim → Aguiar → Balugães.

The stage that connects Barcelos to Ponte de Lima, passing by Balugães, is also a relatively smooth stage in terms of hills, with only two elevations (with more or less 200 metres): the first one, a slight climb around the stretch from Vale do Tamel to Vale do Neiva, and the second one, not very different, in Vitorino de Piães, already in the Ponte de Lima council. Meanwhile, the route goes through Portelas, avoiding unevenness grounds. After Balugães, go through Portela de Piães and walk down to Vale do Lima, a trail that isn’t too uneven. This stage runs along essentially by rural tracks and wooded areas, crossing the EstradasNacionais (National Routes) 204 and 308, and going through several villages in a landscape of outstanding beauty and heritage. At the end of this stage, you would have walked 33,6 km.
