The third stage of the Portuguese Way from Porto takes us from Barcelos to Balugães. 


We leave Barcelos from the Matriz church and then take Avenida da Liberdade and say goodbye to the rooster of Barcelos before taking Dr. Manuel Pais street. After crossing the Circular de Barcelos bridge and passing a roundabout, we will come out onto a road that will take us to the church of Vila Boas.

After crossing the train track we will head to Portela de Tamel, located 10 km from Barcelos. 
On the way we will pass the chapel of Sao Sebastián, that of Santa Cruz and the church of Tamel Sao Pedro Fins. In Portela de Tamel we will find a small chapel and the Pilgrims' hostel.
The next destination will be Balugães, a route that runs between asphalt and dirt tracks and in which the church of Aborim and the Tábuas bridge, from the 12th century, stand out.
