Ponte de Lima
Camino de Santiago stage town on Camino Portugués
Ponte de Lima is a classic stage town on the Central route, named for its long medieval bridge spanning the Lima River.

Pilgrims stop here to rest before the climb toward Rubiães, and the setting by the river makes it a memorable overnight.
