Camino Aragonés
27.9 km, 2090 m up and 2051 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 Itero de la Vega. 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 Iglesia de San Pedro Apóstol at the entrance to town has an image of Santiago Peregrino. The village name, the river, and the word for the stone markers (hitos) that mark the camino all share a common Latin root — it…
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.

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…
Distance, climb and descent are measured along the GPS track for this camino — 172 recorded points across this span, the same track the app carries. The town-to-town figures in my data put it at 26.5 km.
