Stage Description
Transition stage of the Inland Basque Way (shared with the Via Bayona) between the provinces of Alava and Burgos. The 20 km descend from Treviño County to the Ebro Valley, with a predominantly downhill profile. Miranda de Ebro is an important railway junction and industrial center of Burgos at the confluence of the Ebro with the Oroncillo, with a medieval old town along the river. It is a key point on the Basque Way before linking up with La Rioja.
The stage connecting Miranda de Ebro to Santo Domingo de la Calzada is the last of the Vasco-Interior Camino and one of the most demanding. The pilgrim faces the crossing of the Montes Obarenes, on a mountain day of great beauty and solitude. The path ascends progressively through forests of oaks and beeches. Beyond the mountain zone, a long descent begins towards the La Rioja Alta comarca. The landscape changes, and the forests make way for vineyards. Arrival in Santo Domingo de la Calzada is a moment of great symbolism. Here, the Vasco-Interior Camino pilgrim joins the bustling Camino Francés. The city is one of the enclaves with the most history and legend on the Jacobean route. Its Cathedral, housing a live rooster and hen in memory of the famous miracle, its pilgrims' hospital, and well-preserved old town make it an indispensable stop. It's the perfect end to an demanding route and a welcome to the main current of pilgrimage.
