Stage of the Camino
Stage Description
This short 15-kilometer stage connects O Porriño with Redondela, where the Central Portuguese Way meets the Variant of the Coast. The journey includes an ascent to Inxertado Hill, a demanding but short climb offering good views. The rest of the route runs through rural Galician landscape, forests and villages. The most curious landmark is passing by the Roman milestone in Vilar de Infesta. Arrival in Redondela is marked by its impressive train viaducts. This marina town, at the heart of the Ría de Vigo, welcomes pilgrims from both routes, creating a very special and lively Jacobean atmosphere.
The 15 km stage from O Porriño to Redondela is short but intense, and of great strategic importance. The main difficulty of the day is the climb up Inxertado Hill, an ascent of about 200 meters with considerable ramps that demands a good effort.
The road leaves O Porriño and passes through the town of Mos. From here on, the climb begins, which partly follows a beautifully paved path. From the top, a descent starts that takes the pilgrim through a landscape of forests and valleys. An interesting point on the route is the Vilar de Infesta Milestone, an ancient Roman column that indicated the distance along the road.
The final part of the stage is a pleasant walk that approaches the Ria de Vigo. The arrival in Redondela is unmistakable, as the town is dominated by the presence of two large railway viaducts from the 19th century that cross it at great height.
Redondela is a key point, where pilgrims arriving on the Central Portuguese Way meet those who have chosen the Coastal Variant. This convergence doubles the number of pilgrims and creates a lively atmosphere. The town, with its old quarter and public albergue in the historic "Casa da Torre", is a welcoming and perfectly equipped place for rest.
