HOW TO FIND THE RIVER ROUTE INTO BURGOS

When walking into Burgos, the most beautiful route is along the river. The Wise Pilgrim app has the best mapping of this route. And here are some general directions:

1. Follow the trail markers from Atapuerca
2. Pass through the village of Cardeñuela Riopico
3. Pass through the village of Orbaneja Riopico
4. Cross the highway overpass
5. Take the first left turn and follow the dirt path, not the street
6. Continue for about 45-50 minutes to the town of Castañares
7. Cross the road and continue on to the river
8. Cross the river and turn right, then follow the trail markers through the park and along the river, all the way to Burgos
