Discover Burgos

Burgos, the majestic castellany city, stands as a monumental and cultural heart on the Camino Francés. Its main jewel, the Cathedral of Saint Mary, a masterpiece of Gothic declared World Heritage by UNESCO, leaves every pilgrim awestruck at its feet. Its spires, dome, and the Bell Tower are icons of the Jacobean route. But Burgos is much more; it's a city to be explored. The Arch of Saint Mary, an ancient gate of the city, welcomes into a vibrant historic quarter. The Paseo del Espolón, by the Arlanzón river, is the ideal place for a peaceful rest. For pilgrims, Burgos represents a turning point, the end of the first Castilian stages and a perfect place for a day's rest. The city offers an excellent network of hostels and services, and robust gastronomy, where Burgos sausage is the star. Its connection with El Cid Campeador and its role in Castile history make it an enriching and unforgettable cultural stop on the long journey to Santiago de Compostela.
