What you pass through

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.

    Boadilla del Camino783 m3 to stayFood

    The camino leaving Boadilla joins a path alongside the Canal de Castilla, an 18th-century waterway built for both irrigation and transport.

    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…
