Rabacal is a small village in central Portugal, best known for the traditional Rabacal cheese that takes its name from the area. The village has a private albergue and basic services including a cafe.
The nearby Roman ruins of Conimbriga, one of the best-preserved Roman settlements on the Iberian Peninsula, are a worthwhile detour. The site features remarkably intact mosaics, baths, and city walls. A private albergue also exists near the ruins.
Rabacal sits in limestone hill country, and the walking through this area passes through forests and quiet rural villages. From here, the route descends towards Coimbra, one of the highlights of the entire Camino Portugues.
