    End of Desert – Mile 570 to 703

    Day 30 – 32.6 km – Sunday 26.05.2024 The night was very stormy. I only slept for about 2 hours. My tent wobbled all night and despite earplugs I could hear the strong wind permanently. But since it’s no better in the morning, I’ll pack everything together around half past…

    Lots of wind turbines – mile 448 to 569

    Day 25 – 39.1 km – Tuesday 21.05.2024 Today I get up around 6 a.m. I’m really glad I still have my tent set up. Because in the morning the outer layer is completely damp. So I leave my tent and have breakfast. In the meantime, the tent can dry…

    Above the clouds – mile 364 to 447

    Day 21 – 30.1 km – Friday 17.05.2024 After a quick breakfast, I leave shortly before 7 a.m. At first it’s quite relaxed through the forest and I’m making good progress. The path falls off easily and I’ll soon be passing ski resorts. After about 2 hours I stop at…

    Day 16 – 20.2 km – Sunday 12.05.2024 Today I sleep a little longer because the shops probably won’t be open before 8. I have a short breakfast and since I run out of gas when I cook porridge, I just add the coffee. I dismantle my tent and walk…

    Stressful days – mile 180 to 265

    Day 11 – 16.2 km – Tuesday 07.05.2024 In the morning I wake up and go to the laundry area. There I meet again an older Swiss, with whom I had talked longer a few days ago. Even today the conversation is longer. Like the others here, he came here…

    Varied Desert – Mile 78 to 179

    Day 5 – 18.4 km – Wednesday 01.05.2024 The night was windier than I thought, so I woke up a lot. At least I could see the starry sky. At 5:45 I get up again and pack everything up. Since I hadn’t set up a tent, I was quickly done.…

    Arrival in Lisbon

    Marateca to Setubal (34.3 km) – Monday 08.04.2024 On the hill there was little of the road to hear during the night, so I could sleep well. I got up early in the morning, packed up my tent and set off again to complete the remaining kilometers on the road…
