Una ciudad pequeña pero con muchos servicios, es la primera en mucho tiempo que tiene expansión suburbana (por pequeña que sea).

A lo largo del carril bici en la parte "alta" del pueblo encontrarás O'Bras, y al final de la carretera está la iglesia y el albergue (con lavandería debajo), así como un restaurante.

History

Los nombres de Alvaiázere, y Alvorge más adelante en el camino (así como muchas otras palabras que empiezan por "al-", derivan ambos del árabe. En el caso de Alvaiázere deriva de "el cetrero" y en el caso de Alvorge proviene de "la torre". La torre desapareció hace tiempo, pero los halcones aún se pueden encontrar.

The Road

Hay varios caminos para salir de la ciudad, pero el camino está bien señalizado. Aun así, presta mucha atención a las flechas y, si eres de los que caminan antes del amanecer, te aconsejamos que lo compruebes con antelación.

Sal del pueblo por el camino que hay frente a la iglesia, girando a la derecha en una gran palmera.

La reserva anticipada es esencial - este es un lugar sin personal. Muy cómodo, solo 2 habitaciones (una doble, una con literas), impecable con baños privados ¡y jacuzzi! Excelentes instalaciones de cocina. Tenga en cuenta que está en otro pequeño pueblo antes de Alvaiazere. Las opciones de comida son traer la suya propia y cocinar, caminar 800m al supermercado, o caminar 2km a Alvaiazere. ¡El número del taxista al lado en la cocina fue barato y rápido!

I loved this albergue. The host takes the time to give each pilgrim a unique stamp. You can tell he really puts a lot of love into this place. If you are looking for spotless, fancy facilities, go elsewhere. But if you are looking for a unique, beautiful, down-to-earth, truly Camino-esque experience, you MUST stay here.

Well positioned and you can choose shared or private rooms, sheets, blankets are supplied and breakfast also is an option. My favourite part however, was the stamping ceremony, the shot of port and the greeting everyone receives. John Brierly loved it also in his lifetime, now his daughter is taking that room named in his honour.

Go to alberque pinheiros.
Carlos is such a warm host en makes a whole awesome ritual of the stamp.
He can be a hard man to catch on the phone but call a thousand times and then he will call you back.
Don't miss this guy and his nice alberque

Decent rooms and very calm. Food of the restaurant was also good, but their pricing is outrageous, 63€ for 2 pers. dinner is way too much. Be careful if you are more sensitive. It is plausible that price is "adjusted" according to the customer.
