Stage 4. Azambuja – Santarém (33 km)

We start the journey from Azambuja heading to Santarém, with a distance of 33 kilometres.

This stage is part of the Portuguese Way. Would you like to walk the Camino with your accommodation already booked? We organise it from Oporto: Portuguese Way from Oporto to Santiago.

A long day, very exposed to the sun, so it is best to set off early and well hydrated. You walk beside the Tagus, even on top of the flood dyke, to Valada and Porto de Muge. From there a lonely stretch awaits among crop fields with no shade or services, in which the outline of Santarém, capital of Portuguese Gothic and a real final oasis, gradually appears.
