Day 8…

The walk to Fátima was another 30 km day. It was long and we were of course very tired by the end of the day but it was a pleasant walk. We passed through a variety of landscapes and the scenery was changing all along the way. The temperature was warm but not excruciatingly hot due to the cloud cover.

The day also passed relatively quickly because we had the pleasure of walking with and getting to know a nice couple from Croatia. They were the only pilgrims we saw the entire day.

We didn’t have any time to explore Fátima in depth when we arrived. It was late and we were too tired. But tomorrow we will have a full day here. Upon first glance it appears very touristy.

Little Fátima statues glued to the rock wall all the way along the climb up the mountain.
Tiny stone heart along the path! ❤️

  1. This looked like a pleasant day of winding paths, wildflowers and cute dry stone walls. Hope you enjoyed your time in Fatima. Where to next?

    1. It was definitely nice to have a couple of days to rest in Fátima. Some things we liked but other things were disturbing. That’s the word we live in now! We went to Tomar after Fátima.
