In this stage we will leave behind the vineyards of La Rioja to give way to the extensive
cereal fields of Castilla y León. As in yesterday’s stage, we won’t have to negotiate any
steep slopes, but there will be the occasional road crossing. We will pass through several
villages along the Camino to reach Belorado, sheltered by the Sierra de la Demanda. In
addition to the remains of its imposing castle, bastion of the Cid Campeador, we can visit
some of its churches, hermitages and caves that served as settlements for ancient
hermits.

Itinerary
Km 0 ‧ Santo Domingo de la Calzada
We follow the Calle Mayor and cross the river Oja over the bridge built over the original
bridge built by Santo Domingo de la Calzada; we take a track to the right of the road,
cross it shortly afterwards and continue parallel to it. After three and a half kilometres we
reach the Cruz de los Valientes. We continue in the same direction, parallel to the
national road N-120, heading towards Grañón.
We walk through Grañón without changing direction, along the Calle Mayor; at the end we
descend to take a farm track and, after walking by a stream, we turn left onto the second
track. Here we say goodbye to La Rioja and enter the extensive region of Castilla y León.
