    ITINERARY
    Day 1
    Arrival in Logroño
    On the day of your arrival you will have the opportunity to visit the beautiful city of Logroño, full of tourist and cultural attractions. We recommend that you do not miss the view of the Gothic Cathedral of Santa Maria and the Church of San Bartolomé. You’ll like the Paseo del Espolón, too.

    The city also has a beautiful old town, where it is worth wandering about. The most famous street to go out for trying tapas and wines is Calle Laurel, although there are also other traditional ones such as San Juan or Mercado.

    Logroño, capital of La Rioja, also houses numerous wineries open to the public, such as Campo Viejo, Marqués de Vargas or Marqués de Murrieta, but to visit them, you will need to have more than a day in the city. Ask us if you want to add an extra night to your trip.

    Accommodation: Overnight in Logroño.

    Day 2
    From Logroño to Nájera
    Today you will start the day heading to the Puerta del Camino, then continue along a green route through the natural environment of La Grajera, in the company of cypresses and fruit trees.

    Away from the urban centre of Logroño, and over a landscape full of vineyards, you will reach the pottery town of Navarrete. We advise you to take the opportunity to visit the La Ascensión Church, in a Baroque style.

    From there, and not without first finding a detour that will offer you the opportunity to visit the village of Ventosa, you will reach Nájera. There you can relax for the rest of the afternoon, enjoying an excellent panoramic view over the region.

    Distance: 23 kilometres.

    Accommodation: Overnight in Nájera.

    Day 3
    From Nájera to Santo Domingo de la Calzada
    The third day of walking awaits you with an exciting route, full of sights and legends. Along the route, you can begin to appreciate how the landscape changes in the vicinity of the Castilian plateau. Gradually, the Rioja vineyards give over more space to cereal fields, typical in Castile.

    Today, you will advance over rural roads, which will take you to the small villages of Azofra and Cirueña. Among them you will find a detour that will allow you to follow the traditional path or deviate to visit the monasteries of Suso and Yuso, declared a World Heritage Site.

    Whichever route you take, the stage ends in Santo Domingo de la Calzada. One of the most famous villages on the Camino de Santiago for being the scene of the legend of the rooster and the hen. We encourage you to visit the local church, where you will find a rooster and a hen that honour this legend; and which the inhabitants of the village say usually sing at all masses.

    Distance: 21 kilometres.

    Accommodation: Overnight in Santo Domingo de la Calzada.

    Day 4
    From Santo Domingo de la Calzada to Belorado
    Today, at the beginning of the day, and on a stone path, you will arrive at A Grañón, the last town in La Rioja. Afterwards, surrounded by cereal farmlands, you will continue to advance to cross towns such as Redecilla del Camino or Viloria de Rioja.
    The stage ends in Belorado, with the Oca mountain range, as a backdrop. The rest of the day can be dedicated to visiting the town, with its charismatic square, or approach the archaeological sites of Puras de Villafranca, declared as Cultural Interest.

    Distance: 24 kilometres.

    Accommodation: Overnight in Belorado.

    Day 5
    From Belorado to San Juan de Ortega
    Today the day will be very diverse. In the first part of the stage, you will advance along an infinite straight line through various villages such as Villambistia, where you will find a fountain to which they attribute healing properties.

    Then, the route enters the Montes de Oca, dominated by oaks and pines. San Juan de Ortega, where the stage ends, will emerge at some point along the route, without you being able to see the village in the distance.

    Distance: 24,5 kilometres.

    Accommodation: Overnight in San Juan de Ortega.

    Day 6
    From San Juan de Ortega to Burgos
    On the last day, you will have the privilege of crossing, on foot, the Sierra de Atapuerca. On the tour you will pass through the village of Atapuerca, internationally known for the prehistoric sites that are in the vicinity. We would advise you that if you want to enter them to make a visit, you will have to book in advance.

    The beautiful city of Burgos, where the tour concludes, will appear before your eyes in the distance. On the traditional path or by the detour that you will find in the village of Castañares, which runs along the banks of the River Arlanzón, you will reach the Gothic capital of Spain.

    Distance: 16 kilometres.

    Accommodation: Overnight in Burgos.

    Day 7
    Burgos
    During your stay in Burgos you should not miss the Cathedral, considered one of the most beautiful in Spain and declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. In Burgos, you will find many other tourist and cultural attractions, because the city has a rich history in architecture.
    Another highly recommended plan is to wander through its historic centre and discover the tapas culture that prevails in the city.
