50 km south of Porto, only 1,5 km from the caminho portugues, in Pinheiro da Bemposta.
Simple,Stylish & Cozy
Moinho Garcia offers 2 bunkbed dorms and a double room. For pilgrims, families, groups or individuals. Kitchen and bathrooms are shared. The interior is simple but tasty. The huge outside area is plenty of charming spots. River, waterfalls, barbecue area or bread oven. A unique space to relax.
The River
The Caminho de Santiago Português
The caminho central is only 1,5 km from the mill. Moinho Garcia is certainly an unique spot on the whole Camino de Santiago. Where else could the pilgrim bathe his tired feet in the cold river water, refresh the exhausted body in the waterfall, or be lulled to sleep by the gentle murmur of the river next to original millstones?
“Moinho Garcia is a very special place, a kind of a dreamgarden...a perfect place to restore,” so a passing pilgrim.
Directly from here, pilgrims can as well seize the opportunity to continue on a coastal track; in 2 days, following the "sandtrail", to Porto.
Special price for pilgrims.
Pick up at the Camino from Pinheiro da Bemposta (1,5 km) till Branca (4 km) is possible.
