Camino Aragonés
24.4 km, 92 m up and 43 m down, through 5 places, 4 of which have somewhere to sleep. Where you stop is up to you.
Every place on the path in order, with the distance from Boadilla del Camino. Most are too small to sleep in — a fountain, a chapel, a bar that may or may not be open — but they are what the day is actually made of.
The camino leaving Boadilla joins a path alongside the Canal de Castilla, an 18th-century waterway built for both irrigation and transport. You'll follow the canal to the outskirts of Frómista, crossing at one of the locks. It's flat, pleasant walking with water alongside — a novelty on the meseta.
Leaving Frómista requires retracing your steps to the main intersection — don't wander blindly through town. If you're departing before dawn, scout the arrows the evening before. The trail follows a straight path alongside the road toward Población de Campos.
Población de Campos is a small village on the road from Frómista with a bar and an albergue. The Ermita de la Virgen del Socorro, just outside town, has a modest Romanesque apse. The village serves mainly as a junction p…
Revenga de Campos is a small village on the main route between Frómista and Villalcázar de Sirga. A bar provides the only service. The walking is flat and straight.
Another tiny meseta village between Revenga and Villalcázar de Sirga. No reliable services. The landscape here is pure Tierra de Campos — flat, agricultural, and vast.
The Iglesia de Santa María la Blanca dominates the village with the appearance of a fortress-church — which is exactly what it was. The Knights Templar built and maintained it, and the military architecture is unmistakab…
Carrión de los Condes sits at the junction of the pilgrim road and the Río Carrión, a position that made it a prosperous medieval town. Today it's quieter, but enough of the old architecture survives to justify a proper …
When leaving Carrión de los Condes, stock up on water. The next 17 km to Calzadilla de la Cueza have little shade and no reliable water source. In recent years a seasonal roadside kiosk has appeared at roughly the halfway point, but don't count on it.
Distance, climb and descent are measured along the GPS track for this camino — 111 recorded points across this span, the same track the app carries. The town-to-town figures in my data put it at 24.3 km.
