*We were informed about a German Book, "Der Weg ist das Ziel" by H. Hess. In that book there seems to be a "Shortcut" by
Covilha. Since this is away from the Route of "O Caminho de Santiago do Este de Portugal/Oriental leaving from Tavira",
our Association has to investigate this.
*If this "alternative" is acceptable for Pilgrims, Volunteers and Board it will be published on our Blog and on leaflets,
given out along the Route of "O Caminho Tavirense", between Tavira and Santiago de Compostela.
++Last more as 100 kms to Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela on foot, daily 2 Carimbos on Credencial from Ourense!
++Last more as 200 kms to Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela by bicycle, daily 2 Carimbos on Credencial from Chaves!
++Distance from Fundao following Route of "O Caminho de Santiago do Este de Portugal/Oriental desde Tavira" about 475 km!
*To avoid confusion(confusao) we invite Amigos-Pilgrims to continue working together with our Association to make "O
Caminho de Santiago do Este de Portugal/Oriental" a Clean-Clear and Save Way to the Tomb of Saint James, apóstolo
Tiago. Email: baesurissantiago@live.com / Blog: http://walkingbaesurissantiago.blogspot.com /
