Stage
Burgos → Hornillos del Camino
Ease of walking: Moderate to hard: long exposed sections with little shade on flat but potentially monotonous terrain.
Leaving Burgos, pilgrims enter the vast Meseta: long, flat stages across cereal fields lead to tiny hamlets such as Hornillos del Camino. This calmer rural stretch emphasizes endurance and the classic Camino solitude of the plateau.
Scenery
Expansive cereal fields, straight country roads, occasional windmills and isolated farmhouses across the Meseta.

Water along the Camino
Pilgrims will find drinking water fountains (fuentes), public taps and springs in most villages and at points along the way. In summer and on remote stretches, carry enough water between stops as gaps can be long.
