Monday May 23 Viana do Costelo to Vila Praia de Ancora

Monday May 23 Viana do Costello to Vila Praia de Ancora

The sun shone all morning on the most dramatic coast.


I had no markers. I just tried to stay along the coast as much as I could.  When the path ended and goats were jumping from rock to rock,

I  conceded to my physical reality and went on tractor trails and single track paths with end unknown.

Up the 10% grade to the lighthouse and then back down on a 8 foot wide packed sand pathway.


I had a blast! Did I know where I was? No. Did I know where I was going? Yes,
north.


Finally a walk on a Sandy beach. Across the footbridge. Over the railroad tracks to my bed for the night.

  1. Ice plants along the coast and fern eating goats? Beautiful.
