The Camino de Santiago from Sahagún to León is a five-day, four-night route, that runs through the heart of the Castile plateau. The characteristics of this route make it especially suitable for all those people who do not want to climb many slopes, but who wish to discover on foot the emblematic towns of this area of Spain.
From Sahagún, a beautiful medieval town, influenced by Mudejar art, the route crosses a landscape characterized by the presence of cereal crops and vineyards. On the tour you can visit villages such as El Burgo Ranero and Mansilla de las Mulas.
The trip ends in the walled city of León, where you will find many sights, such as the Cathedral, the Real Basilica of San Isidro or the peculiar building designed by Gaudí, la casa de Botines. In addition, throughout the tour, you can enjoy excellent traditional cuisine and taste exquisite wines.

Some places of interest in Sahagún are: The Church of San Tirso and San Lorenzo, with a combination of Mudejar, Romanesque and Gothic architecture, and the peculiar excavated cellars that you will find in the town.
Accommodation: Overnight in Sahagún.
You will end the day in the quiet village of El Burgo Ranero. In the village, you can visit the Church of San Pedro and the Laguna de la Manzana, which owes its name to a beautiful legend that we invite you to discover during your stay in the village.

During the tour, you will cross small villages such as Villamoros de Mansilla, Puente Villarente or Arcahueja. At the end of the day, and from the highest point of the stage, you will enjoy extraordinary views of León, just before wandering towards the centre of the city.

Another thing you have to do before you leave the city is wander through the streets of its old town, known as the Barrio Húmedo. On these streets, you will find a large number of bars and restaurants that serve free tapas with each consumption.
The Jewish Quarter and the Romantic Quarter are also highly recommended, but to discover in depth the city, you will need to spend two days in León. If you would like to add an additional night to your trip, please contact us.
