Quiet adventure: Walking entire Portugal

  • I decided to try walking the entire length of Portugal.
    It took 35 days, around 800km
    (550 miles).
    I carried the least possible with me. A tent, some clothing, and basic utensils.
    Sometimes there were walking routes, other times I improvised.
    To film I supported my phone where I could and walked back to retrieve it. The recording process was entertaining amongst the solitude.
    This is my simple video, for memories to come.
    It was a long, amazing journey.

    Tom, what a wonderful hike! I admire what you have achieved, how you did it and the beautiful way you captured and presented the journey 👏👏
    I have just returned from Portugal after completing a similar journey which I did in two parts - Lisbon to Caminha (2022) and Lisbon to Lagos (2024).
    Muito respeito da Irlanda! Cyril.

    This is unbelievable. What a journey. I have some questions.
    First, where is this place at 9:20?
    Also, did you use the same pair of hiking shoes for your entire journey? What kind were they and how did they hold up?
    What kind of backpack did you use, and would you recommend for a journey like this?
    For drinking water, did you have a bladder, and where did you fill up?
    And did you use a GPX device for your route and have it all planned in advance? Or did you improvise as you went along? Were you able to camp anywhere on public land, or did it have to be a designated place?

    • @tomcrown_adventure
      @tomcrown_adventure  Год назад +1

      Cheers! 9.20 is just a short walk north of "Cabo da Roca". I used my running shoes (very light and fresh) they worked very well. The backpack was lent to me and it was great (Quechua Forclaz 40 Air). For water, I filled up a bottle where I could (cafes or restrooms). About half the route was improvised, half was marked :)

      Beaches with cafes, restrooms, or shops in villages (tap water, bread, butter, milk, tuna, vitamins, etc) Mostly improvisation :)

    Tom! You did a wonderful job with your documentary style! Absolutely loved it! I was in Sesimbra once (overlooking Troia) and the view literally brought a surprise tear to my eye. 🥹
    Where was that place with the cool bridge…just before Nazare? Loved that you featured Vila do Conde-my parents city!
    Happy travels!! Hope to see more! You’re a cool dude!

    Do you've only lost 4 kg after that long walk? If I attempt that I'd probably lose half of my body weight!
    And it would take me way more than 35 day for sure.
    That was an impressive effort, well done 👏👍
