Belorado

Highlight • Settlement

Belorado is the most important town in the province of Burgos, an enclave known for its geographic location between the Sierra de la Demanda and the border with the autonomous community of La Rioja.
The 22 municipalities of these lands are operated under a common association. Belorado was an important strategic location. Its birth as we know it today is closely related to an early medieval castle which controlled the passage through the Ebro Valley to the plateau during the Reconquista. The town was the first place in Spain to celebrate a fair. It was in 1116, thanks to the privilege granted by King Alfonso I of Aragon.

In the eighties Belorado was an important place, specializing in the production of animal fur products. Despite this history only a few factories remain, although its glorious past in the fur industry is still visible by a multitude of old posters that still hang on the facades of the buildings.
If you are traveling on the Camino de Santiago or are planning to do so soon, you should know that the distance separating Belorado from Santiago de Compostela is 543 kilometers.

Matagrande Cross

Highlight • Monument

One of those typical marker crosses that can be found in many places on the Camino. Here pilgrims leave a stone that they picked up on the way, sometimes with a little message on it.

Path with panoramic views near Castrillo del Val

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

The track is in perfect condition from Castrillo del Val. Then the descent to San Millán de Juarros is quite bad.

Camino de Santiago

Highlight • Trail

In addition to the country road, there is the Camino as an alternative. The road is busy and it may make sense to switch to the Camino.
