Un albergue nuevo en el pueblo, situado en el sótano del centro comunitario. Cajero automático y mini mercado en la primera plaza a la que llegas. Bar acogedor.

Notice

Este camino de grava forma parte de una antigua calzada romana, y las flechas han desaparecido. Sigue recto. Cuando llegue a una carretera asfaltada, gira a la izquierda. Pero NO sigas por esta carretera todo el camino de vuelta hasta la N347. La flecha ha desaparecido, pero cuando llegues a una curva de la carretera, la pista de la derecha es la que quieres. Esa curva en la carretera asfaltada está a 300 m de la N347 visible, así que si llegas hasta la carretera principal, puedes volver sobre tus pasos o caminar por la N347 hasta la ciudad.

History

La torre que da nombre a la ciudad (del árabe Al Burj) ya no existe.

The Road

Mirando hacia el lado del crucifijo de la iglesia, gira a la derecha hacia la carretera principal (recién empedrada) y gira a la derecha en esa carretera. Ahora deberías tener un gran edificio moderno a tu izquierda (el centro comunitario y albergue), y estarás yendo cuesta abajo. Continúa hasta la primera carretera y gira allí a la izquierda, cuesta abajo.

El camino te llevará a la N347, que seguirás a la izquierda durante una distancia muy corta.

Después gira a la derecha por un camino de grava.

El albergue se veía maravilloso pero había un cartel que decía cerrado. Pensamos que era Casa da Lima pero era otro 6 km. Era tarde y estábamos tan cansados que no podíamos caminar un paso más. Pero teníamos que dormir en algún lugar. Ay Lin de Casa da Lima estaba preocupada y nos recogió en coche. Estábamos tan contentos de que ella insistiera

The owner is passionate about making each pilgrim feel pampered! It is much more than a beautiful and clean place; the bunks are private and roomy, the pilgrim meal of a restaurant standard; nothing is too much!

Our host was so very wonderful. We arrived as the restaurant was filled with locals for a 60th birthday party. He was bartending it all by himself and also helping pilgrims check in. He was so sweet and helped us mop up the water on the floor.
We enjoyed a wonderful communal dinner with the other pilgrims and he even gave us a discount for helping him clean up. He gave my friend a free ice cream and was so kind and gracious. He was running the albergue mostly alone and did a wonderful job.
The dormitories are absolutely gorgeous and so clean. Each bed has a beautiful curtain and a PowerPoint and light. There are cozy blankets under the beds and it is so quiet and comfortable.
The overall experience was amazing. I highly recommend staying here.

It was a welcomed sight after the hot ups and downs of today. Clean and spacious, will supply sheets and blankets but are extra. Great facilities and meal options! You can dry your clothes at the back. The beds are spacious and comfortable, no head bumping in these bunks!

There is a short cut than rather following the dog leg on the map. Go straigh past the church.

The town is very small. There is a private albergue at the entrance of the village and another one at the church. There is a small supermarket where you can find the basics but it’s a bit more expensive than usual.

There is a new Albergue which opened a day after I passed! Looked nice!

Just 1 km off-track from Alvorge is Casa Vale Do Florido, outstanding hospitality, convenient Cafe w/ dinner and breakfast. Beautiful location. Might need your GOS to get here but it is wonderful!
